Allen Bradley Background Suppression Photoelectric Sensor Block, IO-Link, 4 to 120mm Detection Range - 42JT-B8LAT1-P4


Use this photoelectric sensor from Rockwell Automation's Allen Bradley range for accurate object detection in industrial systems. It works together with a reflector to bounce the light it transmits back to it. When an object breaks this beam, the unit sends an electrical signal to the equipment it's connected to. This either halts operation or raises an alarm. This transmitter emits a red laser beam that's easy to see, so installation and alignment with the receiver are easy. You'll find it used in manufacturing and automation applications.

• Simple flange mounting doesn't need complex tooling, saving time and effort

• Ingress protection rating of IP67 to withstand dust and immersion in up to 1m of water

• Wide operating temperature range from -20°C to +60°C for use in harsh environments

• Quick response time of 500μs (microseconds) for immediate detection

Standards and Certifications


• RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances)

• EN (European Standard)

What does the 'teach' button on this sensor do?


This sensor's teach button is used to adjust its sensitivity and to alternate between light and dark operation output functions.
