Built for speed and reliability, the Leuze PRK18B.XTT3/4P-M12 Photoelectric Sensor features a 0.33 ms response time and autocollimation tracking, making it ideal for detecting transparent materials with high precision. Its retro-reflective design operates on the reflection principle, with a sensing distance of 0 to 3 meters, delivering stable performance even in environments with changing background conditions. A red LED light source with a wavelength of 620 nm ensures focused and consistent detection signals.
The sensorβs cubic housing measures just 15 mm Γ 47 mm Γ 32.5 mm, allowing it to fit easily into compact machine layouts. With a rugged diecast zinc body and a glass lens cover, this sensor is rated for IP67 and IP69K, providing excellent resistance to water, dust, and high-pressure cleaning. It operates across a wide voltage range of 10β30 V DC and includes dual PNP transistor outputs for both light switching and dark switching modes. The M12 metal connector (A-coded, 4-pin) ensures a secure, vibration-resistant electrical interface. With a switching frequency of 1,500 Hz and Teach button setup, this sensor supports high-speed applications where minimal delay and high reliability are essential. Leuze's engineering excellence ensures the PRK18B.XTT3/4P-M12 meets both performance and safety standards in critical sensing environments.
The Leuze PRK18B.XTT3/4P-M12 Photoelectric Sensor is built specifically to detect highly transparent objects like plastic bottles, glass panels, and film rolls, which are typically hard to sense using conventional sensors. Thanks to its autocollimation function, this sensor can differentiate between the target object and its background with minimal adjustmentβreducing false triggers and manual recalibration in production lines.
This sensor is ideal for Indian industries where line speeds are increasing and packaging materials are becoming more diverse. Whether you're working in a bottling plant in Baddi or a pharma packaging line in Hyderabad, this model gives engineers a reliable solution that just worksβeven in dusty, steamy, or high-vibration environments. Its fast 0.33 ms response time ensures you donβt miss a beat, even in high-throughput operations.
With intuitive features like the Teach button and clear LED indicators, both junior and senior maintenance teams can handle setup and diagnostics without needing advanced training. If your automation workflow depends on precise, repeatable detection of transparent items, the Leuze PRK18B.XTT3/4P-M12 Photoelectric Sensor is a smart investment.
