BALLUFF Diffuse Photoelectric Sensor, Block Sensor, 0 to 2 m Detection Range, NPN/PNP Output, Threaded BOS 23K-GI-RD10-S4

BALLUFF BOS 23K-GI-RD10-S4 diffuse photoelectric sensor is a block-style sensor engineered for reliable industrial proximity sensing with a detection range of 0 to 2 meters. It employs advanced diffuse technology which emits a light beam that reflects off objects in the path, activating the sensor when an object enters its sensing range. This sensor features an NPN/PNP output configuration to support multiple electrical interface requirements.

Housed in a robust ABS alloy and polycarbonate rectangular body, the sensor supports threaded mounting for secure and flexible installation in industrial automation environments. The sensor is rated with IPX6K and IP6X ingress protection, ensuring durability against water jets and dust ingress, making it suitable for demanding factory floors and hazardous locations.

Operating effectively within temperatures from -20°C to 60°C, the sensor utilizes an LED light source and includes a 4-pin connector interface with IO-Link communication protocol support for smart integration into automated systems. It supports a maximum operating voltage of 30V DC and a maximum current of 100mA, ensuring efficient power consumption.

This diffuse photoelectric sensor is designed primarily for detecting glass, but can also sense other materials within its detection range, providing versatility across manufacturing, automation, and quality control applications. The BOS 23K series upholds CE and IEC 60947-5-2 standards and includes ECOLAB certification, reflecting quality and environmental compliance.

Common industrial use cases for this sensor include object detection in conveyor systems, packaging lines, automated inspection stations, and robotic automation where precise non-contact sensing is critical.

Set includes the sensor unit with 4-pin connector interface, ready for integration into automation control systems. Manufactured in Germany, this sensor is classified as a new product in EnvMart's catalog.
