Panasonic CX-491 Retroreflective Sensor

Panasonic CX-491 Retroreflective Sensor

The Panasonic CX-491 Retroreflective Sensor (Part No. UCX491) is a high-performance retroreflective photoelectric sensor, offering a 3-meter (9.843 ft) sensing range for detecting opaque, translucent, or specular objects. Optimized for use with the RF-230 reflector, this sensor provides accurate detection with 0.5 mm repeatability and a 1 ms response time. It features a PNP open-collector output that can be switched between Light-ON or Dark-ON modes, and it includes built-in short-circuit protection for added reliability.

This sensor is built for demanding industrial environments, with an IP67 rating for dust and water resistance. It offers superior ambient temperature tolerance between -25°C to +55°C and features automatic interference prevention, allowing sensors to be installed in close proximity. The continuously variable sensitivity adjuster ensures precise detection, while the LED indicators (orange for operation, green for stability) provide easy diagnostic feedback.

Key features :-

Applications :-

• Conveyor systems: Detects objects with high accuracy for automated material handling.
• Packaging lines: Reliable for detecting items on fast-moving production lines.
• Manufacturing automation: Ideal for precise control in factory setups.
• Safety applications: Provides secure detection for industrial safety protocols.
• Close-proximity installations: Interference prevention allows for tight sensor arrangements.

Precautions :-

• Ensure Correct Wiring: Incorrect connections can cause sensor failure
• Avoid Overvoltage: Operating within 10-30V DC prevents damage
• Protect from Extreme Heat: Avoid installing near high-temperature sources
• Regular Cleaning: Keep the optical lens free from dust and debris for optimal performance
