Pepperl + Fuchs has expanded its
ML4.2 Series of subminiature photoelectric sensors with new models offering faster response times, multibeam redundant detection, independent outputs, and zero deadband sensing. High-speed models offer 250 µs response time. Other models include dual-sensor redundant detection models, dual-sensor redundant detection and independent output models, precise sensing models, a retroreflective sensing model with no sensing deadband, and throughbeam sensors. All nonthroughbeam sensors feature integrated crosstalk immunity, 4-in-1 output, high immunity to ambient light, and diagnostic LEDs.
These sensors are perfect for applications that require more signal strength than is available with background suppression sensors, and sense at either very close or long sensing distances.
They can be used when rigid reflectors or even reflective tape must be detected up to the sensor face, as a standard retro-reflective mode sensor would typically not see reflective tape unless it were two to four inches from the sensor.
They are also well suited for detecting objects such as solar cell wafers and packaged tubes or cartons where precise and repeatable leading edge detection is a must.
As one of the Midwest's largest Pepperl & Fuchs distributors, we can help you with all of your photoelectric needs. Whether you need transparent object detection or a long-range through-beam sensor with light on/or dark on, we can help.

P+F is a great source for all types of
ultrasonic sensors, including ultrasonic motion sensors and ultrasonic
range sensors. Ultrasonic sensors present the ideal solution for non-contact position and distance measurement in all industrial areas where environmental conditions such as dust, smoke or steam may affect the sensors. Objects consisting of a variety of materials can be detected to within millimeters regardless of color or shape.
The ultrasonic sensor produces a data carrier utilizing very high frequencies that are outside the human’s audible range. The time it takes for that ultrasonic wave to pass between the sensor and the object is the value for the distance or the position. Ultrasonic sensors have proven their reliability and precision in many industries, including lumber and furniture, construction materials and equipment, farming equipment and in level control applications.
Pepperl+Fuchs’ ultrasonic sensors currently encompass twelve series of mechanical designs for through-beam, direct detection and retro-reflective operation. Customer and application specific custom solutions underscore our technological competence in this area of sensors.
Some product features are:
- Devices with TEACH-IN functionality for fast and simple installation
- ULTRA 3000 software for improved adaptation of sensors to applications
- Adjustable sensitivity to the sound beam width for optimized adjustment of the sensor characteristics according to the application
- Temperature compensation - compensates for sound velocity due to varying air temperatures
- Synchronization input to prevent cross-talk interference when sensors are mounted within close proximity of eachother
- Sensors with digital and/ or analog outputs
Call us at 800-325-9653 for all of your Pepperl + Fuchs sensor needs.

Zener barriers – cost saving and easy mounting Ex-protection
Zener barriers from Pepperl + Fuchs provide cost saving Ex-protection for various applications in process automation systems. The amount of energy transferred to the hazardous location is limited to a safe level incapable of igniting the explosive atmosphere. Pepperl+Fuchs offers a wide product portfolio of housing and connection styles, which include DIN rail, termination board mounted, and accessories for each application.
Zener barriers have to be connected to an IS ground.
The IS grounding can be realized several ways:
- Isolated from the DIN- Rail
- Via an isolated DIN-Rail
- Via DIN-Rail
Field replaceable fuses provide a convenient means of disconnecting or open-circuiting the instrument loop without interfering with the wiring, making commissioning and maintenance operations much easier.
As one of the midwest's largest Pepperl + Fuchs' distributors, Marshall Wolf Automation can help you with all of your safety needs, including intrinsically safe barriers.

Pepperl+Fuchs has expanded its family of ML4.2 Series Subminiature Photoelectric Sensors. A number of new models are available to help maximize machine productivity by delivering faster response times, multibeam redundant detection, independent outputs and zero deadband sensing, among other significant benefits.
Two precise sensing models are also now available to deliver the sharpest sensing distance cut-off and smallest switching hysteresis on the market for background suppression sensors. The first model is available with a visible red emitter, and senses black and white color extremes within an extremely tight sensing window. A black test object is sensed up to 20 mm from the sensor, a white test object is sensed up to 21 mm away and no targets are detected at or beyond 22 mm. In contrast, a standard version ML4.2 sensor enables background suppression at 25 mm from the sensor. A second model senses black to 40 mm, white to 43 mm and no objects at or beyond 43 mm.
A new ML4.2 series retroreflective sensing model with no sensing deadband is used with a corner-cube reflector and is polarized so that shiny objects will not be erroneously seen as the reflector. An innovative single optical axis design eliminates sensing deadband. A second model also includes an output that monitors signal strength.
Lastly, new ML4.2 series thru-beam sensors deliver maximum signal strength in situations where retroreflective and background suppression models do not have sufficient optical power. They feature an optical alignment aid to indicate marginal signal strength, a status LED to indicate if small objects are not detected at high speeds, and quadruple the speed of previous generation thru-beam sensors. They are ideally suited for applications with sensing distances up to at least 8 meters, and in dirtier environments.
