The Schneider Electric XU2B18PP340D is a photoelectric sensor designed for through-beam detection. This sensor operates within a 12-24VDC voltage range, making it suitable for integration into a wide array of industrial control systems. Its through-beam sensing principle ensures reliable detection of objects passing between a paired emitter and receiver unit.

Technical details

• Sensing Technology: Photoelectric Through-Beam
• Operating Voltage: 12-24 VDC
• Output Type: PNP (indicated by 'P' in part number)
• Output Configuration: Normally Open (NO) and Normally Closed (NC) (indicated by 'P' in part number)
• Connection Type: M12 Connector (indicated by '340' in part number)
• Enclosure Material: Likely robust plastic or metal for industrial environments (verify with datasheet)
• Sensing Range: Specific range requires datasheet verification, but through-beam sensors typically offer longer ranges than diffuse sensors.
