NPN open collector, Cable type connection, Sensitivity adjuster

The Autonics photoelectric sensor BRQM3M-PDTA is Polarized retroreflective sensing type, comes in a cylindrical shape, sensing distance of 3m, Response time of Max. 1ms and cylindrical installation. The standard cylindrical photo sensor can be used in diverse applications requiring non-contact detection of Opaque material.

As a quick report, this photoelectric sensor provides:

• Polarized retroreflective sensing type

• 3m sensing distance

• Opaque material sensing target

• Red LED (660nm) Light source

• 10-30VDC ±10% (ripple P-P: max. 10%) power supply

• NPN open collector control output

• Light ON/Dark ON mode selectable by control wire

• IP67 ingress protection structure according to IEC standards

Body

This Autonics photoelectric sensor’s case is made of brass, Ni-plate, its Lens, Lens cover are made of polymethyl methacrylate acrylic.

The BRQM3M-PDTA features IP67 ingress protection.

Connection

The Autonics sensor BRQM3M-PDTA features standard cable type connection. This cable covers the sensor’s 4 wires. It is Ø4mm in diameter and 2 meters in length.

Sensing specifications

The sensing target for this photoelectric sensor is Opaque material. The maximum distance that this sensor can detect its standard sensing target is 5m. This so-called sensing distance differs from one sensing target to another, based on their material.

Control output

The BRQM3M-PDTA features NPN open collector control output. NPN stands for Negative-Positive-Negative transistors.
