Overview
The XU8M18MA230K is a Telemecanique Osisense tubular background rejection photoelectric sensor in an 18 mm threaded metal barrel, rated for a fixed 12 cm sensing distance on a light-operate output. It runs on a universal 24 to 240 VAC/VDC supply and switches up to 200 mA load current through a 2-wire M12 3-pin AC/DC micro connector, with a 20 ms on/off response time. The nickel-plated brass housing and NEMA 4X/12 IP67 seal suit washdown and indoor/outdoor industrial environments.
How it compares
Compared to the XUB0BNSNM12, the XU8M18MA230K runs on a wider universal supply (24 to 240 VAC/VDC vs 12 to 24 VDC) and uses a 2-wire M12 3-pin connector instead of a 3-wire 4-pin DC connector, but its sensing distance is fixed at 12 cm versus the XUB0BNSNM12's multi-mode range up to 15 m.
