Overview

The Cutler-Hammer® Comet Series is a complete line of high performance, 18 mm tubular sensors with a variety of models and modes to solve virtually any sensing problem. The sensors are available in through-beam, reflex, polarized reflex, diffuse reflective, focused diffuse reflective, wide angle diffuse reflective, Perfect Prox®, fine spot Perfect Prox® and fiber optic sensing. Perfect Prox® is one of the most powerful problem-solving sensors available. These sensors can reliably detect targets of different color, reflectance, contrast or surface shape at the same range, while ignoring background objects just a fraction of an inch away. The Comet Series includes AC/DC and DC-only models with, 3- and 4-wire circuitry. Choose from cable or microconnector. Each sensor features a light/dark operation switch and a gain control to provide for quick adjustment to peak optical performance. The unique threaded body with flat sides allows quick mounting in a 3⁄4" hole or against any flat surface. Internal components are rigidly sealed in a solid encapsulated package for excellent performance in high vibration and high-shock applications.
