Schneider Electric XU2-M18MC230W-T Photoelectric Sensor

The Schneider Electric XU2-M18MC230W-T is a through-beam infrared photoelectric sensor that provides non-contact object detection for industrial automation. Housed in a cylindrical M18 body with a 90° orientation and nickel-plated brass construction, it emits infrared light for reliable sensing at up to 15 m nominal and is commonly used in packaging machines, conveyor lines, sorting systems, and automated handling applications. Designed for repair, retrofit, or new equipment integration, this Schneider Electric / Telemecanique Sensors transmitter operates over 24–240 V AC/DC, draws 10–200 mA, uses a 2 m, 3-pin cable, and offers IP67 protection, a 20 ms response time, and a 25 Hz switching frequency, making it suitable for maintenance teams, OEMs, and system integrators needing durable long-range detection.
