Keyence PZ-G52EP Photoelectric Sensor
Product Introduction
The Keyence PZ-G52EP is a high-power thrubeam sensor within the PZ-G series. This rectangular model employs dual infrared LEDs to reach a 40-meter detection distance. Furthermore, its PNP open collector output matches many modern control systems. A single-turn trimmer provides sensitivity adjustment across a 230° range.
Technical Specifications
The PZ-G52EP operates on 10 to 30 VDC with 10% peak-to-peak ripple tolerance. Current consumption remains 25 mA or less for the transmitter and 28 mA or less for the receiver. Its control output supports 30 V and 100 mA maximum, with residual voltage at 1 V or below. Additionally, the sensor offers switch-selectable LIGHT-ON and DARK-ON modes. Response time stays at 500 µs maximum for fast detection cycles.
Mechanical and Environmental Parameters
Durability defines the PZ-G52EP design. The housing uses glass-fiber reinforced PBT, and the lens cover uses polyarylate. Moreover, the enclosure meets IEC IP67, NEMA 4A/6/12, and DIN IP69K standards. Operating temperature ranges from -20 to +55°C without freezing. Humidity tolerance spans 35 to 85% RH with no condensation. The unit also withstands 10 to 55 Hz vibration and 1,000 m/s² shock.
Installation Guide
The PZ-G52EP features an M12 pigtail connector for rapid cable replacement. Mounting requires a maximum torque of 0.5 N·m on the mounting hole. Besides, interference suppression supports up to two units via polarization filters or automatic frequency switching. Align the transmitter and receiver precisely across the 40-meter path. Finally, secure both units tightly to prevent vibration-induced misalignment.
