Key ratings and what they mean for your design
The XU9M18MB230: Sensing distance is rated at 2 m maximum, using a standard reflector (not included). The polarized optics reject false triggers from glossy backgrounds – critical for packaging lines with film-wrapped products. Supply voltage range is 24-240 V AC and DC, covering both AC and DC control circuits. Output is a relay (form 1NC) rated for 200 mA maximum load current at 25 Hz switching frequency. M18 brass body sealed to IP67 withstands washdown environments and dust. The PMMA lens offers good optical clarity and impact resistance for industrial settings.
Compliance and documentation
The sensor carries CE, CSA, UL Listed, and RoHS compliance. IEC 60529 governs the IP67 rating. No NEMA enclosure rating is assigned.
