PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
KEYENCE CORP PZ-G101EP - Diffuse-Reflective Photoelectric Sensor
This device is a compact, general-purpose diffuse-reflective photoelectric sensor from the KEYENCE PZ-G Series, engineered for reliable object detection in industrial automation environments. It utilizes a single-unit design for emission and reception, detecting targets based on reflected light intensity. The sensor provides a digital NPN output for direct integration into PLC and control systems, suitable for material handling, assembly line monitoring, and presence detection applications.
