PM-L25 Panasonic Photoelectric Sensor New In Box PML25

Panasonic PM-L25 NPN Micro Photoelectric Slot Sensor

Detect Position Without Contact

The Panasonic PM-L25 detects opaque targets passing through a fixed 6 mm slot. Its built-in amplifier simplifies integration into compact equipment. The L-type body suits installations around moving flags and small mechanisms.

Where It Fits

Application areas include electronics assembly, packaging equipment, and automated handling. Typical tasks include detecting a carriage home position, confirming mechanism travel, and counting opaque tabs passing through the slot.

Electrical and Sensing Specifications

Setup and Operating Conditions

Position the target to interrupt the beam fully. The orange indicator lights when the beam is received. Operate between −25 and +55°C without condensation or icing. At +50°C or above, mount the sensor on a metal body.
