P2KE004 Through-Beam Sensor

Available from stock
The through-beam sensor works with red light as well as a transmitter and a receiver. Thanks to their high light intensity, the sensor provides a high degree of operational reliability even with interferences like steam, fog or dust. The transmitter can be deactivated using test input in order to test the functionality of the through-beam sensor. The IO-Link interface can be used to configure the sensor (PNP/NPN, NC/NO, switching distance), as well as for reading out switching statuses and signal values. The robust V4A (1.4404/316L) stainless steel housing is resistant to oils and coolants, as well as cleaning agent.
