Panasonic Retroreflective Block Photoelectric Sensor, LED Light Source, 24V DC, IP67, 2 mm to 25 mm Detection Range EX-14B-PN

Panasonic EX-14B-PN retroreflective Photoelectric Sensor is a miniature block sensor designed for precise and reliable object detection within a sensing range of 2 mm to 25 mm, converging at 10 mm. It features a compact housing measuring 19 mm in height, 10 mm in width, and a depth of only 3.5 mm, manufactured with durable polyethylene terephthalate ensuring robust environmental protection with an IP67 rating.

This sensor incorporates a visible red LED light source, facilitating easy alignment during installation and operation, and provides a PNP output type with wire terminals for seamless electrical connection. It operates at a maximum DC voltage of 24 V and withstands currents up to 50 mA with a fast response time of 500 microseconds, making it suitable for high-speed automation and control systems.

Designed to detect opaque materials, the sensor consistently senses objects regardless of varying colors or surface textures, which is beneficial for diverse industrial and manufacturing applications. It supports 'Light-on' and 'Dark-on' modes and includes stability and operation indicators to ensure reliable performance.

The device operates reliably in a temperature range from -25°C up to 55°C, ensuring durability in harsh working environments. It is mounted using screws for secure positioning in automated systems.

Typical use cases include industrial automation, packaging machinery monitoring, process control, and safety where precise object presence detection is critical. Its compact size and environmental protection rating also make it suitable for use in laboratories, HVAC systems, and water treatment plants.
