Allen-Bradley 42GRU-9200-QD1 Photoswitch Sensor

Allen-Bradley 42GRU-9200-QD1 Photoswitch Sensor is a Series 9000 GP polarized retroreflective photoelectric sensor with standard ON/OFF output. It operates on DC supply 10-30 V and draws up to 30 mA, with a load current rating of 250 mA at 30 V DC, and uses a 4-pin Mini Quick-Disconnect connector for easy installation. The sensor emits infrared light at 660 nm, supports polarized retroreflective sensing with a maximum sensing distance of 50 mm and a maximum switching distance of 4.9 m (16 ft), and features a yellow LED that indicates power is on. Encased in Valox plastic, it provides IP67 and NEMA 13 protection, an overall size around 74.93 mm tall, 40 mm long, and 41.91 mm wide, and manual adjustment for sensing range; it tolerates bright ambient light up to 5000 lux and supports both NPN and PNP outputs for flexible wiring. Parts like this are commonly used in automation applications to detect targets on conveyors, machines, and packaging lines where a reflective surface is used and compact mounting is needed.
