Datasheet
• Photoelectric sensors in a compact, rugged, sealed, over-molded plastic housing
• Standard 3 mm threaded mounting holes on 25.4 mm (1 in) spacing
• Advanced electronic design for excellent noise immunity and cross-talk avoidance
• Threaded metal M8 connector on Pico-style quick-disconnect models
• 10 V dc to 30 V dc operation with complementary solid-state outputs (1 normally open, 1
normally closed); PNP or NPN, depending on model
• Complete offering of mounting brackets and apertures available
• Crosstalk prevention filters available for visible red opposed mode pairs
• Exceptional optical performance with easy to align visible red emitters
• Background suppression models provide reliable detection up to 150 mm while ignoring
objects in the background
• Background suppression models provide stable detection in the presence of fluorescent lights
WARNING:
•Do not use this device for personnel protection
• Using this device for personnel protection could result in serious injury or death.
• This device does not include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow its use in
personnel safety applications. A device failure or malfunction can cause either an energized (on) or de-
energized (off) output condition.

1Integral 2 m (6.5 ft) unterminated cable models are listed.
• To order the 9 m (30 ft) PVC cable model, add the suffix "W/30" to the cabled model number. For example, Q20E W/30.
• To order the 4-pin M8/Pico-style integral quick disconnect model, add the suffix "Q7" to the model number. For example, Q20EQ7.
• To order the 150 mm (6 in) PVC cable model with a 4-pin M8/Pico-style quick disconnect, add the suffix "Q" to the model number. For example,
Q20EQ.
• To order the 150 mm (6 in) PVC cable model with a 4-pin M12/Euro-style quick disconnect, add the suffix "Q5" to the model number. For
example, Q20EQ5.
• To order the 150 mm (6 in) PUR cable model with a 4-pin M12/Euro-style quick disconnect, add the suffix "QPMA" to the model number. For
example, Q20EQPMA.
• Models with a quick disconnect require a mating cordset.
