The unit uses a pulsed red 660 nm LED and provides a PNP (sourcing) output with light\/dark operation, in a through-hole mount with an M8 4‑pin connector. It operates from 10 to 30 VDC, drawing about 25 mA (30 mA max no-load) with an output current rating under 100 mA and built-in short-circuit and reverse-polarity protection. The housing measures about 14.8 mm wide, 43 mm high and 31 mm deep, constructed from ASA\/MABS plastic with a PMMA front, and is rated IP67 for dust and water protection; operating temperature is -25 to +65 °C. This CH-8501 variant is commonly specified as FPDK 14P5101\/S35A (retroreflective) with a 660 nm red LED, and features a 4‑pin M8 connector for reliable wiring in industrial environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Baumer","offers":[{"title":"Used Surplus - Excellent Condition","offer_id":51676743794990,"sku":null,"price":235.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0818\/1038\/files\/Ebay_website_image_47ca06ee-62dd-46c6-8526-c2822b2b4f73.jpg?v=1769552819","url":"https:\/\/plgautomation.com\/products\/baumer-ch-8501-color-sensor","provider":"PLG Automation ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
