Retro-Reflective Sensor, Model MCS-655P
The MCS-655P is a photo-reflective NPN open collector photo sensor with Light/Dark activated output that operates up to 1000 Hz. For simplified installation purposes the integral LED aids in the MCS-655P model comes in a robust metal housing with a connection cable, LED status indicator, sensitivity control and mounting nuts.
Features
- Sensing distance up to 23′ (7 m)
- Polarizing filter ensures reliable detection of highly-reflective objects
- Bright power and signal LEDs with 360° visibility offer quick and simple troubleshooting, reducing maintenance time and costs
- Bright red sender LED simplifies alignment and saves installation time
- Reflector Included
- High switching frequencies up to 1000 Hz
- The flat and smooth lens reduces the collection of dust and dirt, ensuring reliable operation
- Polarizing filter prevents false readings on reflective surfaces, reducing errors
