Bulgin Launches Slimline Photoelectric Sensors for Affordable IIoT Integration

Bulgin, a trusted name in rugged connectors and industrial components, has introduced its latest Slimline Photoelectric Sensor Series. These compact sensors are engineered to deliver high‑performance proximity sensing for IIoT applications while keeping costs and installation footprints low.

Each sensor features a 30 × 16 × 4.5 mm body and a 5 mm light spot at 30 mm distance, allowing reliable detection of objects 1–40 mm away with a response time under 0.5 ms. The diffuse‑reflective design supports both presence and absence detection, making it ideal for manufacturing and industrial automation workflows.

Built for harsh environments, the SL Series is IP67 rated and encased in stainless‑steel 316. Bulgin’s rigorous testing regime includes 10–50 Hz vibration (double amplitude) for two hours on all three axes, and shock impact of 1000 m/s² repeated six times per axis.

Flexibility is key: sensors are available with or without an M5 connector, and cables run 2 m in length. Both NPN and PNP output options ensure compatibility with a wide range of control systems.

By marrying compactness, durability, and low cost, Bulgin’s Slimline Photoelectric Sensors provide a dependable foundation for scaling IIoT solutions across production lines.
