The IFM E21268 is a rectangular prismatic reflector designed for retro-reflective sensors in hygienic and wet food-industry environments. It provides a 56 × 38 mm reflector surface and supports both red-light and infrared-light sensing. The reflector is manufactured from Solidchem material for demanding industrial conditions. Its overall dimensions are approximately 40 × 60 × 7.5 mm and its weight is approximately 14.6 g. It is suitable for high-temperature applications with ambient temperatures up to 140 °C.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The E21268 is designed specifically for hygienic and wet areas within the food industry. Its rectangular reflector surface provides a reliable optical target for compatible retro-reflective sensors. Solidchem material supports the requirements of demanding production environments. The reflector is suitable for both red-light and infrared-light systems. It provides a practical solution for sensor installations exposed to frequent cleaning and moisture.
The 56 × 38 mm reflector surface provides a larger target area than compact reflector variants. This can be useful when the reflector needs to be clearly detected from a suitable sensing distance. The overall dimensions remain compact enough for industrial mounting. Its prismatic construction supports reliable retro-reflective operation. The component weighs approximately 14.6 g.
The E21268 is rated for ambient temperatures from -20 to +140 °C. This provides flexibility for applications involving elevated process or cleaning temperatures. The Solidchem material provides a robust solution for food-industry sensor systems. Its design is suitable for demanding environments requiring hygienic-compatible accessories. The reflector is supplied as one piece for installation.
