Autonics BRQP3M-PDTA Cylindrical Plastic Photoelectric Sensor

Autonics BRQP3M-PDTA is a cylindrical plastic photoelectric sensor with a 3 m retroreflective sensing distance and a built‑in polarizing filter that detects opaque targets as small as Ø75 mm. It operates on 10–30 VDC (±10%, ripple PP max 10%), draws up to 30 mA, and provides an NPN open-collector output with Light ON or Dark ON operation selectable via the control wire; the response time is up to 1 ms. The red LED emits at 660 nm, and the unit uses a PC body with a PMMA lens, rated IP67 for rugged environments and capable of withstanding ambient light up to 11,000 lux in sunlight (3,000 lux under incandescent lighting) within an operating range of -25 to 60°C (storage -30 to 70°C). The cable version BRQP3M-PDTA-P ships with a 2 m cable (Ø4, 2 m) for straightforward integration.
