Retroreflective detection at line speed
The XUB1APANM12 is an M18 threaded retroreflective photoelectric sensor from Schneider Electric's XUB series, delivering a 5.5 m sensing distance with a 1 ms response time and 500 Hz switching frequency — fast enough to catch containers on a high-speed beverage line without missing edges. Rated IP65, IP67, and IP69K, the plastic PBT case with double insulation and a scratch-resistant lens shrugs off washdown spray and caustic foam in filler environments.
Washdown-ready build and approvals
The sensor carries CE, CSA, and UL Listing approvals, covering regulatory acceptance for North American and European panels. The M12 4-pin connector and right-angle lens orientation simplify cabling in tight gland-plate layouts — the 18 mm x 62 mm cylinder fits standard M18 mounting holes.
