Leuze PRK 96M/P-1830-21 | 50028975

The Leuze PRK 96M/P-1830-21 Photoelectric Sensor is engineered for dependable performance in applications where detecting transparent or reflective materials is critical. Its cubic metal housing and IP67 protection rating make it ideal for use in harsh industrial settings, including environments with dust, moisture, or frequent washdowns. Built with a red LED light source, it operates on the reflection principle to detect objects at a range of 0 to 1.5 meters with high repeatability. The sensor features transistor PNP outputs supporting both light switching and dark switching modes, ensuring seamless compatibility with a wide range of automation systems. With a supply voltage range of 10 to 30 V DC and a switching frequency of 1,000 Hz, it handles fast operations while maintaining signal integrity. Its 3-pin terminal connection simplifies integration into control panels, while the multiturn potentiometer allows precise adjustment of sensitivity on-site. The robust housing—sized at 30 mm x 90 mm x 70 mm—is constructed using zinc alloy and paired with a glass lens cover for long-term optical clarity. Built-in LED indicators enable easy diagnostics, while the sensor’s temperature range of -40°C to +55°C ensures stability in extreme conditions. With proven durability, high sensing accuracy, and field-proven electronics, the Leuze PRK 96M/P-1830-21 Photoelectric Sensor stands out as a trusted solution for demanding automation tasks.

The Leuze PRK 96M/P-1830-21 Photoelectric Sensor is ideal for detecting highly transparent bottles, clear plastic films, and stretch-wrapped cartons on fast-moving industrial lines. It’s widely used in beverage bottling plants, packaging machines, and warehouse automation systems—anywhere accurate sensing of low-contrast objects is critical. In bottling lines, it ensures detection of empty PET containers before filling. In logistics setups, it verifies the presence of wrapped cartons before palletizing. With its fast response, engineers can confidently eliminate missed detections or double counts, minimizing manual verification and reducing downtime. For Indian automation engineers and technicians, this sensor combines simplicity, ruggedness, and long-range clarity. The Leuze PRK 96M/P-1830-21 Photoelectric Sensor is a proven, field-ready option for automation systems where detecting transparent or reflective materials is non-negotiable.
