Sensor identity and category position
The XUYPS2CO945S is a Telemecanique photoelectric sensor from Schneider Electric, branded under Square D Switches & Sensors. It sits in the Photoelectric Sensors category — the class of non-contact presence detectors used across packaging, material handling, and assembly lines where the target interrupts or reflects a light beam.
Sourcing posture and procurement path
The XUYPS2CO945S is sourced through independent distribution channels and quoted to order against a BOM quantity. For volume purchases or blanket-order coverage, the part can be specified into a multi-year category plan.
Peer cross-reference note
The closest listed peer is the XUYPS1LCO965S, also a Telemecanique photoelectric sensor under the Square D Switches & Sensors brand. Both share the same product category and manufacturer brand, but the XUYPS2CO945S carries a distinct order code — the suffix difference signals a variant in sensing range, output type, or connector configuration. Without a published cross-reference from Schneider Electric, the two are not drop-in interchangeable without verifying the BOM position.
