Allen-Bradley 42MRU-5200

The Allen-Bradley 42MRU-5200 is a highly versatile modular photoelectric sensor head that excels in various industrial applications. Part of the renowned PHOTOSWITCH Series 5000, this sensor offers a broad array of sensing modes for enhanced flexibility and user-friendliness. Operating on 120 VAC or a DC voltage of 12 to 30 volts, it supports both NPN and PNP output configurations and is designed to work with a separate output module. With the capability to reliably detect light and dark conditions, the 42MRU-5200 is ideal for processes that depend on the presence or absence of light. It can sense objects at distances of up to 10 meters with standard infrared fiber-optic cables and extend to 170 meters using specialized cables for longer-range detection. The sensor supports multiple sensing modes, including retroreflective, polarized, and non-polarized, allowing it to adapt to diverse application needs. When integrating the 42MRU-5200, ease of installation and alignment is essential, ensuring optimal performance and accurate detection tailored to your specific requirements.
