SUNX EQ-512 Reflective Photoelectric Sensor

SUNX EQ-512 is a compact, diffuse-reflective photoelectric sensor with a built-in amplifier, engineered for reliable detection of reflective targets within an adjustable range of 0.1 to 1.0 m (approximately 4 to 39 in). This 3‑wire device provides a configurable NPN/PNP transistor output and operates on DC voltage, fitting neatly into standard industrial control circuits. As part of Panasonic's SUNX EQ-500 series, the EQ-512 combines an integrated amplifier with a compact housing and multi-voltage compatibility to simplify integration across different supply environments. The sensor is designed for applications such as detecting parts or features on conveyors and packaging lines where a reflective target is used, and it adheres to EMC EN 60947-5-2 and RoHS directives. With its diffuse-reflective operation and adjustable sensing distance, the EQ-512 offers a straightforward, compact solution for precise presence or position sensing in tight automation spaces.
