Allen Bradley Through Beam Photoelectric Sensor, Block Sensor, 0 → 18 m Detection Range IO-LINK

Allen Bradley 42JT VisiSight photoelectric sensors offer a small rectangular package with visible light beam for ease of alignment and industry standard mounting hole spacing. Each model offers PNP or NPN and light operate or dark operate outputs. IO-Link enabled sensors offer advanced features and diagnostics including Automatic Device Configuration, multiple profiles, trending, descriptive tags, and device-specific parameters

IO-Link communication

This through-beam photoelectric sensor from Rockwell Automation's Allen Bradley range forms part of a sensing system you can use for long-range object detection in challenging conditions. This unit is a receiver, which you pair with a matching photoelectric emitter (134-8355) to achieve an effective sensing assembly. The emitter uses an LED to give out light with a wavelength of 660nm, which appears as a visible red beam that this receiver reflects back. When the beam is interrupted by an object, a signal is sent to your communication programme and triggers a preset action.

• Long-range sensing up to 13m (42.65ft) means it's practical for large-scale applications
• IP69K rating certifies it's dustproof and suitable for harsh, hygiene-critical environments that are power washed at high temperatures
• IO-Link protocol lets you access real-time process data for analysis and diagnostics as well as controlling setup, maintenance and troubleshooting processes

• CE
• cULus
• ECOLAB

Thanks to an adjustable output function between light operation (LO) or dark operation (DO) and a configurable output type of PNP or NPN, it's easy for you to programme the sensor to meet your system's needs.
