Allen Bradley 42EF RightSight series photoelectric sensors are designed for light to medium level industrial use. The 42EF sensors take many of the features of larger solutions and put them in a smaller, more adaptable package to deliver excellent detection capabilities where size and shape matter. 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 photoelectric sensor from Rockwell Automation's Allen Bradley range is a precise object and position detection solution for your industrial processes. It features IO-Link communication technology, allowing it to interact effectively with actuators for optimised performance. This feature has a sensor heartbeat function that ensures reliable operation by running self-diagnosis and indicating failure or faulty wiring to the programmable logic controller. Troubleshooting then becomes easier and faster. It's energy-efficient, consuming just 100mA of current, and you'll find it used in beverage production facilities.

• Wide detection range of 500mm for versatility
• Highly visible 360º LED (light-emitting diode) status indicator for easy monitoring and troubleshooting
• Bright red laser beam is easy to see, making alignment with the reflector easy
• Wide operating temperature between -25ºC and +70ºC for use in demanding environments

• CE (Conformitè Europëenne)
• CSA (Canadian Standards Association)
• UL (Underwriters' Laboratory)

This sensor has an ingress protection rating of IP67, meaning it's protected against dust and immersion in up to 1 metre of water. This makes it safe for use in wet and humid environments.
