How can we sell proximity sensors for these prices?

A) Because we sell direct.

B) Because the market is price-inflated due to fat markups from middlemen

C) Because we teamed up with a manufacturer that knows how to build quality sensors cost-effectively . . .

D) How about all of the above!

Here's what we've got:

  • 5, 8, 12, 18, and 30mm DC inductive
