It operates on 10–30 V DC with reverse-polarity protection and provides up to 100 mA per output, with short-circuit protection on both outputs and a load capacitance rating of 0.2 µF; typical current draw is under 25 mA (ID20) or 21 mA (ID23). The device switches at frequencies up to 800 Hz with a turn-on delay and turn-off delay under 0.65 ms and a hysteresis under 15%, and it includes a 1-turn sensitivity potentiometer for fine-tuning. In the BOS18M variants, detection ranges include 1–800 mm (ID20) and 1–600 mm (ID23) for IR 850 nm sensing, and the unit supports bright- and dark-sensing modes (bright on pin 4, dark on pin 2). The housing is copper‑zinc with nickel plating and a glass active surface, weighs less than 50 g, and is rated IP67 with an operating temperature range of –5 to +55 °C; it also provides 75 V DC isolation and up to 5 kLux ambient light immunity, making it suitable for demanding industrial environments where compact, reliable detection is essential.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Balluff","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":51676427092270,"sku":null,"price":217.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0818\/1038\/files\/Ebay_website_image_20c94b64-dd4c-42f6-8295-49255a5c8664.jpg?v=1769551482","url":"https:\/\/plgautomation.com\/products\/balluff-bos18m-pu-1pd-sa5-c-photoelectric-sensor","provider":"PLG Automation ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
