Product Description

What this part is

Pepperl+Fuchs RL31-54/25/73c/136 retroreflective photoelectric sensor, part number 183810. Operating Principle: Retroreflective with polarisation filter. Effective Detection Range: 0 to 9,000 mm. Reflector Distance: 20 to 9,000 mm. Threshold Detection Range: 12 m. Light Source: LED, modulated visible red light, 630 nm. Switching Type: Light-on. Signal Output: Two push-pull outputs, 4-in-1. Operating Voltage: 10 to 30 V DC. Connection: 4-pin M12 x 1 connector. Degree Of Protection: IP67. Housing Material: Plastic, PMMA optical face. Mass: 24 g.

Optical performance

Reference Target: C110-2 reflector. Light Spot Diameter: approximately 200 mm at 6 m. Opening Angle: 3°. Ambient Light Limit: 50,000 lux to EN 60947-5-2. Polarisation Filter: fitted. The polarising filter is what makes this sensor work against shiny targets: it discriminates the reflector’s own rotated return from specular glare off polished metal, glass or film, so a bright object passing through the beam still breaks it cleanly.

Electrical specifications

Operating Voltage: 10 to 30 V DC. Ripple: 10 percent. No-Load Supply Current: 20 mA maximum. Switching Voltage: 30 V DC maximum. Switching Current: 100 mA maximum. Voltage Drop: 1.5 V maximum. Switching Frequency: 500 Hz maximum. Response Time: 1 ms maximum. Outputs are short-circuit protected and reverse-polarity protected. A push-pull output drives both PNP and NPN inputs, so one part number covers either input card polarity.

Environment and approvals

Ambient Temperature: -30 to 55 °C (-22 to 131 °F). Storage Temperature: -40 to 70 °C (-40 to 158 °F). Degree Of Protection: IP67. Protection Class: II, rated insulation voltage 250 V AC at pollution degree 1-2 to IEC 60664-1. Product Standard: EN 60947-5-2. UL Approval: cULus Listed, Class 2 power source, Type 1 enclosure. MTTFd: 920 years. Mission Time: 20 years.

Housing and indicators

Housing Width: 18 mm. Housing Height: 62 mm. Housing Depth: 35 mm. Green LED indicates power on. Yellow LED indicates function reserve: lit constantly above twice the switching point, flashing between one and two times the switching point, off below the switching point. The housing carries the green colour code Pepperl+Fuchs uses for a polarised retroreflective sensor.

Wiring

Pin 1 brown, +UB. Pin 2 white, second output. Pin 3 blue, 0 V. Pin 4 black, output. Wire colours follow EN 60947-5-2. Light-on and dark-on are taken from the two separate outputs.

Quantity and configuration

Unit Quantity: 1 Pc. Sensor only.

Interchange guidance
