BP18Y Series Compact Cylindrical Photoelectric Sensors: Reliable Proximity Detection Made Simple

The BP18Y Series of industrial photoelectric sensors combines a robust, compact design with advanced functionality to deliver dependable performance in automated applications. The BP18Y-H150P model is a diffuse (proximity) type sensor, ideal for direct object detection without a separate reflector. Its space-saving M18 cylindrical housing ensures easy installation, while features like automatic anti-interference and short-circuit protection guarantee stable operation in demanding environments.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Flexible Output Configuration: Offers both PNP and NPN open-collector output. Easily switch between Light-On and Dark-On modes via a dedicated white control wire, ensuring compatibility with all major PLC systems.

• Enhanced Reliability with Anti-Interference: The built-in automatic anti-interference function effectively suppresses ambient light and electrical noise, ensuring stable detection and minimizing false triggers for maximum uptime.

• Clear Visual Status Monitoring: A dual-color LED indicator provides instant feedback—green for power status and red for output activation—simplifying setup, diagnostics, and maintenance.

• Rugged Industrial Design: With an IP67 rating, the sensor is dust-tight and protected against temporary immersion. It operates reliably in a wide temperature range of -10°C to +55°C and offers excellent vibration resistance.

Ideal Applications:

• Object presence detection on packaging machinery

• Bottle and container counting in bottling lines

• Pallet and tote detection in material handling systems

• Position verification and end-of-stroke sensing in automation equipment

Choose the BP18Y Series for a cost-effective solution that delivers precise and reliable detection in tight spaces. Its ease of use and robust construction make it the perfect choice for reducing downtime and maintenance costs.
