Econo-Vue™ Photoelectric Sensors
Pepperl+Fuchs GLV/GLK

Use up to 50% less power than many other models on the market!
Low cost, high performance.

Compact and powerful; the Econo-Vue™ photoelectric sensors boast remarkable optical performance in an industry-standard M18 cylindrical housing.

Econo-Vue™ photoelectric sensors are available in both DC and universal AC/DC supply voltage versions.

DC versions of the Econo-Vue™ sensors are up to 50% shorter than other M18 cylindrical photoelectric sensors on the market. And the newer universal AC/DC versions are in the shortest M18 cylindrical housings for AC/DC photoelectric sensors on the market, extremely well suited for space-critical environments.

Pepperl+Fuchs introduces GLV18 Econo-Vue Photoelectric Sensors. The Econo-Vue has all of the great features that users expect to find in larger, more costly sensors, yet it comes in a compact, shorter housing that provides greater mounting flexibility. It is the most economical series in Pepperl+Fuchs’ cylindrical photoelectric sensors family.

"Econo-Vue photoelectric sensors are designed and priced with OEMs in mind, and machine builders shouldn’t let the size—or the price—fool them. Econo-Vue is a workhorse. With its industry-standard 18 mm diameter housing and short barrel length, the Econo-Vue easily fits into any space restricted application, and is ideally suited for material handling. Its small size allows it to fit in tight spaces, and it can be easily attached to the sides of conveyors to detect objects on the rollers," said Ed Myers, Product Manager for Pepperl+Fuchs.

Econo-Vue photoelectric sensor models are available in five different sensing modes and provide sensing ranges up to 20m, making them well-suited for nearly any photoelectric sensing application. All models are available in straight and right-angled housings, cabled and quick disconnect versions, and come standard with a flush mount bracket to create a custom look on panel mounts.
