The 42RC1-4001 model from Allen Bradley is a highly effective photoelectric sensor tailored for industrial use. This sensor excels in providing reliable sensing capabilities through its advanced photoelectric retroreflective technology. Featuring a quick-disconnect type of connection, it utilizes a standard 4-pin setup for efficient installations. The device is crafted from rugged, industrial-grade plastic and includes a protective lens for added durability, achieving an environmental protection rating of IP67. This rating ensures the unit is both dust-tight and water-resistant, extending its operational lifespan in challenging conditions.

With a detection range extending up to 4.6 meters (15 feet), the sensor effectively detects objects utilizing a retroreflector. A visible red LED light source operates at a wavelength of 660 nm, ensuring clear signaling in various ambient light conditions. The sensor's response time is impressively fast at 1 millisecond, allowing for quick switching functionality in dynamic environments. It operates within a voltage range from 10 to 30 VDC and features an NPN transistor output type. The sensor's narrow 3° field of view supports precision detection, making it suitable for specific applications requiring focused sensing.
