It switches up to 100 mA load with a 2 ms response time and handles 250 Hz switching frequency. The plastic housing is rated IP65 and NEMA 4/4X/12/13, making it suitable for washdown or dusty areas. Connection is via a 2 m PVC cable, and the operating temperature range is -13 to 131 °F. ## How It Compares to XUKT1KSML2 The main sibling in the XUK sub-compact family is the XUKT1KSML2, a polarized retroreflective sensor with a 1.5 m range and combined PNP/NPN 3-wire output. The XUK2APANL2R is a through-beam, which demands a separate receiver but reaches 30 m. The XUKT1KSML2 is rated IP67 vs IP65 here, and its 0.3 ms response is faster. For a line-of-sight application needing long distance and a fixed NO output, the XUK2APANL2R is the right choice; the XUKT1KSML2 fits shorter retroreflective paths with dual-output flexibility. ## Mounting & Integration Notes The plastic body measures 1.9 in W × 0.7 in D × 1.9 in H. Through-beam requires aligned emitter and receiver; cable exit is fixed at 2 m. Supply voltage must stay within the 12–24 VDC rated range – under 12 V the sensor may not switch reliably. The PNP NO output is compatible with standard PLC sinking inputs. LEDs (not listed but typical on XUK) indicate output and stability.","metaTitle":"Telemecanique XUK2APANL2R Photoelectric Sensor, 30m Through-","metaDescription":"Telemecanique XUK2APANL2R sub-compact photoelectric through-beam sensor. 30m range, PNP NO output, 12-24 VDC, IP65/NEMA 4X.
