Telco Sensors SMT-8600-PG-5 Industrial Proximity Sensor

The Telco Sensors SMT-8600-PG-5 Industrial Photoelectric Transmitter, part of the SpaceMaster SM 8000 family, delivers reliable through-beam object detection up to 7 meters for industrial automation and machine control. Paired with the SMR 8800 PG 5 receiver, this transmitter operates from 20–250 VAC and draws about 3 mA, featuring an infrared LED at 880 nm for long-range sensing. Its M18 × 1 threaded polycarbonate housing, front lens, and IP67 rating withstand harsh industrial environments, while a 5 m integral PVC cable (2 × 0.25 mm²) simplifies installation. With an emission angle of ±2°, operating temperature from -20 °C to +60 °C (storage -40 °C to +80 °C), and robust shock (30 g) and vibration (10–55 Hz, 0.5 mm) specs, it suits conveyor monitoring, packaging equipment, pallet handling, bottling lines, and warehouse automation processes. The unit carries CE and cRUus certifications and supports common replacements such as SMT-8600-MG-5, SMT-8600H-PG-5, and SMT-8000-PG-5.
