AutomationDirect C18E-00-2E is the tubular through-beam emitter that forms the fixed gap of a 6 m sensing pair, designed to detect object interruptions in automated lines. It operates on 10–36 VDC and uses a 3-wire configuration with a 4-pin M12 quick-disconnect, offering a right-angle lens and visible red light for alignment. The emitter features an 18 mm diameter by 61.5 mm length metal housing with an IP67 rating, includes mounting hardware, and requires a separate cable for connection. Used as the emitter in a through-beam sensor pair, it provides robust positioning and reliable presence detection in industrial environments.
