Overview

The Carlo Gavazzi PD30CTB20PASA is a compact, diffuse-reflective photoelectric sensor designed for precise object detection in industrial automation. Featuring adjustable background suppression, this sensor reliably detects objects up to a 200mm range using visible red light (625nm). Its robust 10x30x20mm housing is ideal for space-constrained applications. The PD30CTB20PASA offers a versatile PNP output with selectable Normally Open (N.O.) or Normally Closed (N.C.) switching modes, allowing for flexible integration into light or dark switching logic. Power is supplied via a 10-30 VDC voltage rating, and connection is made through a standard cable. This sensor is part of the PD30 series, known for its reliability in OEM applications requiring accurate presence detection, positioning, or counting without the need for mechanical adjustments. Its polarity-free wiring simplifies installation. SKU: PD30CTB20PASA. Manufacturer: Carlo Gavazzi. Country of Origin: IT. UNSPSC Code: 39121528.
