The Allen Bradley 42GTU-9203-QD is categorized as a photoelectric sensor within the Photoswitch product line. This sensor utilizes a polarized retroreflective sensing mode to achieve maximum detection capabilities. It boasts an operational sensing distance of 4.87 meters, making it suitable for various applications where distance is a factor.
With a rapid response time of just 2 milliseconds, this sensor ensures timely feedback, crucial for high-speed applications. The output type is solid-state isolated, working in a Normally Open (N.O.) configuration, and includes a timing function that can be set to either “LO” or “DO” energized states, tailored to user requirements.
The construction includes a robust Valox housing that supports its effectiveness in harsh environments, paired with an acrylic lens for optimal clarity in object detection. Rated at IP67 and IP69K, the sensor is designed to withstand both dust and water ingress, enhancing its operational reliability.
For storage conditions, maintaining a minimum humidity level of 80% is recommended, and the sensor can function effectively at altitudes of up to 1000 meters above sea level. This combination of features makes the 42GTU-9203-QD a versatile choice for applications requiring precise object detection in industrial settings.
