FAQ
What is a Balluff BES series replacement?
It is a J&V Automation alternative selected after comparing the original Balluff BES series model code, wiring, voltage, range and mounting. It should not be chosen by brand name alone.
Can I replace Balluff BES series with a lower cost sensor?
Usually yes when the output, sensing distance, housing and environmental rating match. Critical safety or precision applications need a sample test first.
What information should I send for cross reference?
Send the complete model number, label photo, installed photo, quantity, destination country and any PLC input requirements such as PNP or NPN.
