Product Overview

SR22-5-IR-OD - 953101100 - M8 NPN/PNP DARK is a slot/fork photoelectric sensor in the SR22-5-IR-OD series. The product is defined by its optical principle, housing style, output configuration and connection method, so the listed part number should be treated as the complete configuration identifier.

Technical Configuration

The technical configuration includes Detection mode Dark, Connection M8 4-pole, Housing Aluminum, Lens Glass, Protection IP60. These details are directly relevant when integrating the sensor into a PLC, safety or machine-control circuit: the optical method determines how the object is detected, the output type determines the electrical interface, and the connection defines the physical wiring arrangement.

Integration and Installation

For installation, the sensor should be mounted so that the active optical path is correctly aligned with the target or with the required reflector/emitter pair, according to the selected optic function. The M8 4-pole is part of the exact configuration. Where a family offers multiple variants, using the wrong suffix can result in the wrong output behavior or optical function even when the housing appears similar.

Selection for Replacement or New Builds

The product is intended for label sensing, edge detection and object presence within a defined slot. In an ecommerce application this listing is therefore most useful as a precise replacement or machine-BOM item: identify the exact model, verify the output and mounting interface, and then match the sensor to the existing bracket, cable and controller architecture.

Typical Applications

SR22-5-IR-OD - 953101100 - M8 NPN/PNP DARK is suited to label sensing, edge detection and object presence within a defined slot. The exact configuration shown in the specification table is the key selection reference for machine integration.

Exact Configuration for Procurement

When ordering SR22-5-IR-OD - 953101100 - M8 NPN/PNP DARK, the complete model SR22-5-IR-OD and order code 953101100 should be retained as the purchasing reference. The principal configuration points for this item are Detection mode: Dark; Connection: M8 4-pole; Housing: Aluminum; Lens: Glass; Protection: IP60; Weight: 100 g. These parameters should be checked against the existing machine drawing, controller wiring, mounting arrangement or bill of materials before substitution. This avoids treating a family-level part number as interchangeable with a different optical, electrical or mechanical variant.

Maintenance and Replacement Value

For maintenance use, SR22-5-IR-OD - 953101100 - M8 NPN/PNP DARK is most useful when the replacement part preserves the same functional role and interface. Keep the exact model identifier and order code with the equipment documentation so the next procurement cycle can reproduce the intended configuration without relying on a similar-looking family member. This is particularly relevant for SR22-5-IR-OD products, where changes in output type, optical configuration, connection or mounting format can change how the part integrates with the machine.
