The S5-5-T1-32 is an M18 tubular photoelectric sensor designed for reliable detection of transparent objects in industrial automation and packaging applications. It uses a polarized retro-reflective optical system with red LED emission and axial optics.
The T1 sensing function is specifically designed for transparent targets. It provides a nominal sensing distance of 0.1 to 0.8 m on reflector R2, supporting detection of transparent bottles, containers, films and similar products.
The axial optical configuration aligns the sensing axis with the cylindrical sensor body, making the S5-5-T1-32 suitable for conventional M18 mounting arrangements in automated machinery.
Unlike the cable version, the S5-5-T1-32 uses a 4-pole M12 connector. This provides a standardized detachable connection for machine installations and simplifies sensor replacement and maintenance.
The sensor operates from 10 to 30 VDC and supports selectable NPN/PNP outputs and light/dark operating modes. Its fast switching performance makes it suitable for automated production and packaging processes.
The rugged ABS plastic housing, PMMA optical lens and IP67 protection provide a durable solution for industrial environments.
