## Overview 

T8 Series self-contained miniature sensors are designed for precision sensing in small areas previously accessible only to remote sensors and fiber optic cable. Typical applications include mounting on compact conveyors, packaging machines, circuit board and semi-conductor wafer handling equipment, document handling equipment, robot end-effectors, feeder bowls, between the rollers of narrow conveyors, or as replacements for damaged small-diameter inductive proximity sensors. The sensing range of the T8 is many times greater than that of the typical 8 mm diameter inductive sensor. And it provides a low-cost alternative to diffuse (bifurcated) fiber optic sensors. 

> 1 To order the 9 m (30 ft) PVC cable model, add the suffix "W/30" to the cabled model number. (for example, T8AN6D50 W/30). Models with a quick disconnect require a mating cordset.
