Allen Bradley 42JT VisiSight photoelectric sensors offer a small rectangular package with visible light beam for ease of alignment and industry standard mounting hole spacing. Each model offers PNP or NPN and light operate or dark operate outputs. IO-Link enabled sensors offer advanced features and diagnostics including Automatic Device Configuration, multiple profiles, trending, descriptive tags, and device-specific parameters

IO-Link communication

Ensure product uniformity in your industrial operations using this contrast sensor from Rockwell Automation's Allen Bradley range. It uses a red LED to cast a beam of light onto the surface of an object, then it measures the difference in light reflection between the target and its background. Its long detection range of 2m makes it suitable for use from a distance or in large-scale applications. You'll find this type of sensor commonly used in packaging or printing facilities to ensure that all products are the same colour.

• Housing made of ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) for resistance to impact and wear
• IP69K (ingress protection) rating means it's protected against dust and high-pressure water jets
• Broad operating temperature range of -20°C to +60°C for use in demanding workplaces

• UL (Underwriters' Laboratories)
• CSA (Canadian Standards Association)

You can configure this sensor by connecting it to your IO-Link enabled control system. This lets you set the measuring parameters and data transmission mode. To adjust its sensitivity and output function, use the integrated teach button.
