Photoelectric Sensors Retro Reflective

What are Photoelectric Sensors?

We are a Photoelectric Sensors Retro Reflective Suppliers, Distributors & Importers in Mumbai, India. Photoelectric sensors by Carlo Gavazzi detect changes in surface conditions, objects, or colors and categorize these things using light. They also work in such a way that they send a light beam and measure the reflection of cuts and how much this is blocked when another object stands in its way. These sensors fall into one of the most commonly used categories, as they can detect an object without even touching it. Further widely applied in automation and manufacture, they are perfect for counting at high speeds with precision, position location to identify parts, or notice the presence of parts.

Photoelectric Sensors Retro Reflective

Product Overview:

The general-purpose retro-reflective sensor PC50CNR10BA provides a compact and robust housing, 17 x 50 x 50 mm, made from reinforced PC/ABS. This sensor sends a modulated infrared light beam, reflected by a special target or reflector, thus detecting objects interrupting this beam. It is suitable for applications that require dependable, non-contact detection with a wide sensing distance range and adjustable sensitivity at high immunity against interference.

Product Description:

Fixed Sensing Distance Models:

10 meters sensing distance:

NPN Output (Cable Version): PC50CNR10BA

NPN Output (Plug Version): PC50CNR10BAM1

PNP Output (Cable Version): PC50CNR10BA

PNP Output (Plug Version): PC50CNR10BAM1

These sensors possess a fixed sensing range and are available with adjustable sensitivity for flexibility. The choice of output type is available in NPN and PNP output types, depending on the application requirements.

The output types: The PC50CNR series features both NPN and PNP transistor outputs that can be programmed for NO (Normally Open) or NC (Normally Closed) configurations. This flexibility makes them fit for a wide variety of Industrial automation tasks requiring object presence detection.
