Panasonic CX-482 Photoelectric Sensor
The Panasonic CX-482 (Part No. UCX482) is a retroreflective photoelectric sensor designed for high-performance detection in various industrial environments. It provides reliable object detection with a sensing range of 0.1 to 2 meters (0.328 to 6.562 ft), making it suitable for a wide array of applications. The sensor can detect transparent, translucent, or opaque objects with a diameter of Ø50 mm (1.969 in) or more.
This PNP open-collector output sensor is equipped with features like light-ON and dark-ON operation modes, offering flexibility for different detection needs. With a response time of 1 ms and built-in short-circuit protection, the CX-482 ensures efficient and rapid operation. Additionally, the sensor is housed in a robust IP67-rated enclosure, providing protection against dust and water ingress, making it ideal for use in harsh environments.
