Delock vorklichtsluis 5 mm type F met 4 open kabeleinden NPN Light-ON/Dark-ON omschakelbaar 2 m

Forked photoelectric sensor with a 5 mm slot, through-beam sensing, and switchable NPN output. This Delock sensor detects objects passing through its fork reliably, providing a fast response time of up to 1 ms and a switching frequency of 1 kHz. The compact PBT housing with M3 mounting holes allows easy integration into industrial automation, packaging, and counting applications.

Advantages

Switchable Light-ON/Dark-ON output adapts to different control logics. The open collector NPN output supports a wide voltage range from 5 to 24 V DC, making it compatible with PLCs and microcontrollers. An integrated status LED provides immediate visual feedback for alignment and operation. The 2 m cable with four open ends offers flexible wiring options.

Suitable for

• Object detection in assembly lines
• Edge sensing and position verification
• Counting tasks in packaging machines
• Presence detection in automated feeders
• Integration with PLC and microcontroller systems
