Housed in a die-cast metal enclosure with a fully gasketed lens, the SM502A operates on 12–18 V DC and provides complementary open-collector outputs—one normally open and one normally closed—each capable of sinking up to 250 mA, with short-circuit protection and reverse-polarity protection. A rear red indicator LED lights when the sensor detects light, and sensitivity is adjustable via a single-turn side screw, while a 6-foot, 4-conductor shielded cable supports reliable wiring in rugged factories. Range is defined by model-specific excess gain curves, so performance depends on reflector type and installation geometry; this model is intended for retroreflective sensing, not as a personnel-safety device. Operating temperature is -40 to +70 C, and the unit features the robust construction and gasketed lens assemblies characteristic of Banner’s retroreflective sensors, with multiple enclosure options and careful protection against miswiring and environmental exposure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BANNER","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":51676507013422,"sku":null,"price":239.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0818\/1038\/files\/Ebay_website_image_a52f566d-57e9-4d1a-b93e-13a0c2028694.jpg?v=1769551493","url":"https:\/\/plgautomation.com\/products\/banner-engineering-sm502a-photoelectric-sensor","provider":"PLG Automation ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
