Page 67 Keyence Intros Rugged Metal Photoeye


Itasca, IL — Keyence Corp. of America is introducing the PR-G


ease of use. In general, most pho- toeyes are made out of a resin mate- rial and are highly susceptible to damage from impact, over-tighten- ing, or environmental effects. Sensor damage leads to increased costs for downtime and replacement, and is all too common in industrial environ- ments. By introducing a heavy duty metal body, the PR-G Series greatly decreases the amount of valuable time lost due to sensor damage. The durable body is highly resistant to oils, acids and alkaline detergents while maintaining both IP68 and IP69K enclosure ratings to negate the effects of harsh environments. To

Series, a new approach to self-con- tained photoeyes. The PR-G Series is dedicated to fulfilling three main focuses for the industrial automation industry: durability, high power, and


API Offers Quadrature Couplers


Orlando, FL — API Technologies Corp. is now offering design patent- ed WIRELINE® and WIREPAC® quadrature couplers. The couplers consist of a pair of


wire center conductors surrounded by a continuous dielectric insulator and shielded by a drawn or extruded outer jacket. The resultant construc- tion has the physical attributes of semi-rigid coaxial cable, and the electrical performance of a precision Transverse Electro Magnetic (TEM) mode parallel coupled line coupler.


maintain stable detection in harsh environments, the PR-G Series has implemented powerful light sources and increased its gain. These two fac- tors enable the PR-G Series sensors to blast through dirt, oil, and other forms of buildup to ensure reliable detection. These features combine to generate a maximum thrubeam detecting distance of up to 30m. Ease of use is a staple of all of


the company’s sensors and the PR-G Series is no exception. The integra- tion of a highly visible light indicator allows for the output status to be eas- ily determined from a distance. Sensitivity adjustment is also easy to


perform with a built-in trimmer. In addition, the diffuse reflective and retro-reflective models contain a 7- segment digital display for accurate calibration based on numeric values. Durability, high power, and ease


of use make the PR-G Series a stable and lasting solution for endless gener-


al-purpose photoeye applications. Contact: Keyence Corporation of America, 1100 N. Arlington Heights

Quadrature couplers. Developed and patented under


one of API’s heritage brands, Sage Labs, these couplers offer independ- ent quadrature output phases, low VSWR, low insertion losses, and high directivity. In addition, these couplers provide flexibility, small surface volume, varied power han- dling, and the option of a narrow or octave band. WIRELINE is flexible and


available in bulk 5-ft. (1.5m) lengths or cut and trimmed to customer specifications. It is RoHS-compliant for tin and bare finishes. WIREPAC is not flexible, and offered in lengths up to 8-in. (203mm) with square, round, or flanged jackets. Both prod- ucts are well suited for commercial, aerospace, and industrial applica- tions.
