BEI Sensors IO-Link Encoders and Position Sensors
Sensata BEI Sensors IO-Link Encoders and Position Sensors deliver accurate, reliable position sensing and seamless digital communication for modern industrial automation. These are designed around the IO-Link communication standard and they support point-to-point connectivity and Industry 4.0 architectures across factory automation, machine tools, production lines, intralogistics, and packaging applications.
The portfolio includes industrial housed and modular designs, available in absolute single-turn, multi-turn, and incremental configurations. Incremental models offer a unique dual-output option, combining an incremental channel with an absolute value via IO-Link. Flexible options include radial or axial outputs, M12 connectors or cables, solid, blind, or through-shaft designs, multiple shaft sizes, and mounting accessories.
