Exceptional Optical Detection​

The LEUZE PRK18/4 DL4 is a top - tier sensor renowned for its outstanding optical detection capabilities. It operates on the polarized retro - reflective principle. Equipped with a red LED light source, it can effectively detect objects with high precision. The sensor has an operating range that varies depending on the reflector used. For instance, with a TK(S) 100x100 reflector, it can detect within a certain distance range. Its ability to distinguish between objects and backgrounds, even in challenging lighting conditions, makes it suitable for various industrial applications, like detecting parts on a production line or packages in a logistics warehouse.​

Stable Electrical Performance​

In terms of electrical performance, the PRK18/4 DL4 is designed for reliability. It runs on a supply voltage typically within the range of 10 - 30 V DC, with a well - controlled residual ripple. It features digital switching outputs, which can be configured for different operating modes, such as light - on or dark - on switching. The open - circuit current is maintained at a reasonable level to ensure energy - efficient operation. With built - in short - circuit protection, it can withstand electrical glitches, providing stable and long - term performance in industrial electrical environments.​

Durable and Adaptable Design​

The mechanical design of the PRK18/4 DL4 showcases its durability and adaptability. Its housing is constructed from sturdy materials, capable of withstanding the vibrations and impacts common in industrial settings. The sensor has dimensions that make it compact enough for easy installation in various setups. With an IP protection rating, it is resistant to dust and water, allowing it to be used in harsh environmental conditions. The connection mechanism, perhaps an M12 connector, ensures a secure and easy - to - use connection, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial applications, from manufacturing plants to outdoor industrial facilities.​
