Description

The Aotoro ED30-R3C4 utilizes a retro-reflective photoelectric sensing principle, emitting a modulated infrared beam towards a dedicated reflector. The sensor detects an object when it interrupts the reflected beam, providing a stable PNP or NPN output signal based on the selected Light ON or Dark ON mode. This design ensures high immunity to ambient light interference.

Built within a compact M30 threaded metal housing, the sensor is engineered for harsh industrial environments, featuring an IP67-equivalent sealing rating (implied by standard M30 industrial sensor construction) for protection against dust and water ingress. Its wide operating voltage and temperature range make it suitable for integration into automated assembly lines, packaging machinery, and material handling systems.

Key Features

  • Precise Mid-Range Detection: Offers a reliable 3-meter sensing distance for retro-reflective applications, balancing range with stability.
  • Industrial-Grade Housing: Features a standard M30 threaded cylindrical metal body for secure mounting in control panels and machinery.
  • Flexible Output Logic: User-selectable Light ON (output active when beam is received) or Dark ON (output active when beam is broken) operation.
  • Broad Voltage Compatibility: Supports 12–24VDC input, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of PLCs and industrial power supplies.
  • Robust Environmental Rating: Operates reliably across a temperature range of -25°C to +60°C and 35–85% relative humidity.
  • Low Power Consumption: Draws only 15mA typical current, minimizing load on the control system's power supply.

Applications

  • Object presence detection on conveyor belts and automated assembly lines.
  • Package counting and sorting in logistics and packaging machinery.
  • Position verification and end-of-travel sensing in material handling systems.
  • Machine guarding and safety curtain monitoring in industrial automation.
  • Level detection for boxes or totes in storage and retrieval systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating voltage range for the Aotoro ED30-R3C4 sensor?

The sensor operates on a wide-range DC input of 12 to 24 volts. This makes it directly compatible with standard 24VDC industrial power supplies and PLC systems, providing flexibility and eliminating the need for an external voltage regulator in most applications.

What does Light ON and Dark ON mode mean?

Light ON (or 'LO') mode means the sensor's output signal is active (ON) when it receives the reflected light beam from the reflector. Dark ON (or 'DO') mode means the output is active when the beam is blocked. This switchable logic allows you to match the sensor's output state to your control system's required trigger condition.

How do I mount the ED30-R3C4 sensor?

The sensor features a standard M30 threaded barrel. It is mounted by screwing it into a pre-tapped M30 mounting hole in a machine panel or bracket. The included mounting accessories (nuts/washers) can be used to secure it from the backside. Ensure the sensing face is properly aligned with the reflector for optimal performance.

What is the maximum sensing distance, and does it require a specific reflector?

The specified maximum sensing distance is 3 meters (3000 mm). This rating is achieved when using a dedicated retro-reflective target or reflector designed for photoelectric sensors. Using a Generic reflective surface may reduce the effective range. Always align the sensor and reflector within the specified beam angle.
