The EE-SX972-C1: Through-beam slot sensor in a T-shaped module. Senses objects through a 0.02 mm gap with 4 ms response time.
Mounting and wiring
Chassis mount with M3 screws. Supply voltage is 30 V; switching current is 0.05 A.
Temperature range and environment
Rated for -25°C to 85°C operating temperature, covering most indoor industrial environments and outdoor cabinets in temperate climates. The through-beam sensing type is less susceptible to dust and ambient light than retroreflective sensors, but the slot itself must stay clear of debris—periodic cleaning is expected in dusty environments.
