Cylindrical Photoelectric Sensor – GRTE18S-P2347

The GRTE18S-P2347 from the GR18 series is a compact and durable cylindrical photoelectric proximity sensor featuring energetic detection for reliable object sensing in automation systems. Its PinPoint red LED technology ensures a sharp, visible light spot and excellent accuracy, especially useful in precision-triggered applications.

This sensor operates with a sensing range of 10 mm to 400 mm, and a maximum capability of 550 mm, all within a robust M18 x 1 threaded ABS housing. It includes LED indicators for both power (green) and object detection (yellow), and is rated IP67 for use in demanding industrial environments.

With PNP switching output, light switching mode, and standard M12 3-pin connector, the GRTE18S-P2347 is ideal for OEMs and integrators looking for plug-and-play sensing with excellent signal reliability.
