Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi ET5505PPAP-1 Photoelectric Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi ET5505PPAP-1 is a compact through-beam photoelectric receiver designed for reliable object detection in industrial automation, materials handling and machine control applications. Its flat rectangular housing measures just 35 × 55 × 15 mm, providing a practical sensing solution where installation space is limited.
Used with the matching Carlo Gavazzi ET5505-1 through-beam emitter, the ET5505PPAP-1 provides an adjustable sensing distance of up to 5 m. The receiver features complementary PNP normally open and normally closed outputs, providing flexible switching options for connection to compatible PLC inputs and industrial control systems.
The ET5505PPAP-1 operates from a standard 10–30 V DC supply and uses an M12 connector for convenient installation and replacement. Its IP67 PC/ABS housing, 100 Hz operating frequency and integrated short-circuit, reverse-polarity and transient protection make it well suited to demanding industrial sensing applications.

Reliable Through-Beam Detection for Industrial Automation
Through-beam photoelectric sensing uses separate emitter and receiver units positioned opposite one another. The emitter projects a light beam towards the receiver, and an object is detected when it interrupts the beam. This arrangement provides reliable presence detection over longer distances and is particularly useful for conveyors, packaging machinery and automated production equipment.
The ET5505PPAP-1 functions as the receiver within the ET5505-1 through-beam arrangement and provides an adjustable detection distance of up to 5 m. Its complementary PNP NO and NC outputs provide flexibility when interfacing the sensor with PLCs, relays and other compatible automation equipment, while the M12 connection simplifies installation and maintenance.
Typical Applications
- Conveyor object detection.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Materials handling systems.
- Automated production equipment.
- Part presence and position detection.
- Counting and monitoring applications.
- Machine control systems.
- Warehouse and logistics automation.
- PLC-based industrial automation systems.
