Allen Bradley Retroreflective Photoelectric Sensor, Block Sensor, 3 m Detection Range IO-LINK

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

Use this photoelectric sensor from Rockwell Automation's Allen Bradley range to sense the absence or presence of an object in your industrial application. It supports the IO-Link communication protocol, which makes it easy to send data from the device to your control system. A robust and corrosion-resistant polymer housing gives it longevity in harsh environments and humid settings. The unit takes up minimal space as its transmitter and receiver are located in the same housing. LED optical technology allows for clear status indication during setup, operation and troubleshooting. You can use a sensor like this in automated packaging applications.

• Sensor heartbeat communicates faulty wiring or failure to your PLC to ensure reliable operation
• Visible LED beam makes alignment easy
• Process data map lets you choose what information is sent to a PLC as your process data parameters
• Long detection range of 3m suits bigger setups

• CE
• CSA
