Body

This Autonics photoelectric sensor’s case is made of Polycarbonate + Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, its LED Cap is made of Polycarbonate and its Sensing part is Polymethyl methacrylate made.

The BJ3M-PDT-P features IP65 ingress protection.

Connection

The Autonics sensor BJ3M-PDT-P features standard cable type connection. This cable covers the sensor’s 3 wires. It is Ø3.5mm in diameter and 2 meters in length.

Sensing specifications

The sensing target for this photoelectric sensor is Opaque material of min. Ø75mm. The maximum distance that this sensor can detect its standard sensing target is 3m (MS-2A). This so-called sensing distance differs from one sensing target to another, based on their material.

Control output

The BJ3M-PDT-P features PNP open collector control output. PNP stands for Positive-Negative-Positive transistors.
