The Schneider Electric XUV series photo-electric sensor is engineered for precise object detection in demanding industrial environments. This particular model, the XUVR1212NBNM8, features a fork-type sensing head with a 120x120mm aperture, ideal for applications requiring the detection of objects passing through a defined gap. It operates on a standard 12-24VDC power supply, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of automation control systems.

Technical details

• Sensing Technology: Photo-electric
• Series: XUV
• Sensing Method: Fork sensor
• Aperture Dimensions: 120mm x 120mm
• Operating Voltage: 12-24VDC
• Connection Type: M8 connector
