{"product_id":"automationdirect-cxp-ap-1a-photoelectric-sensor","title":"AutomationDirect CXP-AP-1A Photoelectric Sensor","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003eAutomationDirect's CXP-AP-1A is a compact, rectangular photoelectric sensor designed for polarized retroreflective detection at up to 2 meters. It emits a visible red beam and uses a dark-on switching mode with a switching frequency up to 1 kHz, delivering a PNP (sourcing) output via a 3-wire pigtail with 26 AWG conductors on a 2 m cable. Operating from 10 to 36 V DC, this IP65-rated sensor features a 30 x 15 x 30 mm plastic housing and an adjustable potentiometer on the face for sensitivity tuning. The device requires a reflector (purchased separately) to complete the retroreflective sensing setup and is part of AutomationDirect's CX-series family. With a 2 m sensing distance, it is suitable for small- to mid-sized parts on conveyors, packaging lines, and automation stations that demand a compact, durable sensor with precise retroreflective detection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"AutomationDirect","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":51660384305454,"sku":null,"price":181.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0818\/1038\/files\/Ebay_website_image_7be26d6a-4e1e-493a-a069-3ba7627d89dc.jpg?v=1769537139","url":"https:\/\/plgautomation.com\/products\/automationdirect-cxp-ap-1a-photoelectric-sensor","provider":"PLG Automation ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
