Product information

Description

Photoelectric sensor Datalogic BASIC M18 combines a compact optical detection head with a brass cylindrical body and grey external finish. Designed for basic presence and object detection tasks in industrial environments, this sensor operates at a switching frequency of 1 kHz and supports a maximum switching current of 0.2 A. With an overall length of 73.4 mm and a weight of 95 g, the sensor fits into confined assemblies and conveyor systems where reliable, space-efficient optical sensing is required.

Advantages

The sensor’s brass housing provides mechanical robustness and stable mounting in standard M18 applications while the grey finish offers a discreet industrial appearance. Its 1 kHz switching frequency enables detection of moderately fast targets, and the 0.2 A maximum switching current suits direct control of small loads or interfacing with industrial input modules. The compact 73.4 mm depth makes it suitable for retrofit and new installations where space is limited.

Suitable for

  • Object detection on conveyor lines
  • Presence sensing in machine modules
  • Position verification in automated systems
  • Basic industrial automation tasks requiring optical sensing

Key specifications

  • Sensing type: photoelectric (optical)
  • Housing material: brass cylindrical body with grey external finish
  • Switching frequency: 1 kHz
  • Maximum switching current: 0.2 A
  • Overall length (depth): 73.4 mm
  • Weight: 95 g

How to use

Mount the Datalogic BASIC M18 sensor in an appropriate M18 threaded holder or bracket so the optical axis faces the target area. Align the sensing window with the path of the object to be detected and secure the sensor to prevent movement. Connect the sensor according to the system wiring and confirm polarity and supply requirements with the equipment documentation. After powering the circuit, perform sensitivity adjustment and teach or check switching thresholds where applicable. Verify reliable switching at the required object speed, keeping the target material and environmental factors in mind.

Usage recommendations

Use the sensor for clean, unobstructed optical paths; avoid mounting in locations with heavy dust or direct contact with fluids unless suitable protection is added. For higher switching currents or fast heavy-duty actuators, interface the sensor with a suitable relay or driver module. Periodically inspect and clean the sensing window to maintain consistent detection performance.
