ifm OGP500 Retro-Reflective Sensor
The ifm OGP500 Retro-Reflective Sensor is an advanced and reliable sensor designed for object detection in industrial automation and control systems. This sensor operates in the retro-reflective mode, where it uses a reflector to detect objects by measuring the reflection of the emitted light, making it an ideal solution for detecting objects at longer distances with high accuracy.
Operating within a voltage range of 10…36V DC and a current consumption of just 20 mA, the OGP500 is highly energy efficient. It features a PNP electrical design and is equipped with a programmable output function, offering both light-on and dark-on modes, depending on the application requirements. With a maximum voltage drop of 2.5 V DC at the switching output and a switching frequency of 2000 Hz, the OGP500 delivers fast and reliable detection in high-speed applications.
The sensor comes with short-circuit protection in the form of pulsed output, enhancing its durability and protection in harsh environments. It has a robust M18 x 1 threaded housing for easy installation and an M12 connector with A-coding for secure electrical connections. The OGP500 boasts an IP67 degree of protection, ensuring reliable performance in environments exposed to dust, dirt, and water. The sensor operates in a temperature range of -25°C to +80°C, making it versatile and dependable in a variety of industrial settings.
