LEUZE HT15/4X-M8 Photoelectric Sensor 4-Channel Detection IP67 & M8 Connector High Speed Automation

Precise Optical Detection

The LEUZE HT15/4X - M8 is a remarkable industrial sensor with precise optical detection capabilities. Operating on the diffuse reflection principle, it can effectively sense objects in various industrial settings. The sensor uses a red LED light source, which provides reliable illumination for detection. It has a wide operating range, capable of detecting white objects (90% reflectivity) from 0.01 - 0.6 m, gray objects (18% reflectivity) from 0.02 - 0.4 m, and black objects (6% reflectivity) from 0.03 - 0.25 m. This versatility makes it suitable for applications where accurate object recognition is crucial, such as in sorting and packaging processes.

In terms of electrical performance, the HT15/4X - M8 excels. It operates on a supply voltage of 10 - 30 V DC, with a residual ripple of 0 - 15% from UB. The open - circuit current is within 0 - 15 mA, ensuring energy - efficient operation. The sensor is equipped with two digital switching outputs with PNP transistors, allowing for both light and dark switching options. Additionally, it comes with short - circuit protection and polarity reversal protection. This not only safeguards the sensor from electrical malfunctions but also ensures long - term and stable performance in industrial electrical environments.

The mechanical design of the HT15/4X - M8 showcases its durability. Its housing is made of robust materials, which can withstand harsh industrial conditions. Measuring 14.5 mm x 34.2 mm x 18.3 mm, it has a compact size that enables easy integration into different setups. The net weight of 15 g further adds to its portability. With an operating temperature range of - 40 °C to 60 °C and a storage temperature range of - 40 °C to 70 °C, it can endure extreme temperatures. The IP 67 protection rating ensures protection against dust and water, making it suitable for use in various industrial applications, from manufacturing floors to outdoor industrial installations.
