pe12cnt15po-10m – photo te pl 12mm pnp no, cab
Carlo Gavazzi PE12CNT15PO-10M is an IP67 through-beam photoelectric receiver with a 15 m sensing range, 10–30 V DC supply, PNP normally open output and 10 m cable for industrial automation and powered access applications.
Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi PE12CNT15PO-10M Through-Beam Photoelectric Receiver?
The Carlo Gavazzi PE12CNT15PO-10M is a compact through-beam photoelectric receiver designed for reliable long-range object and obstruction detection in industrial automation, powered door and gate applications. As part of the Carlo Gavazzi PE12 photoelectric sensor series, it provides a rated operating distance of up to 15 m when paired with the corresponding through-beam emitter.
This receiver uses modulated infrared light and provides a PNP normally open (NO) output with light-switching operation. Through-beam sensing positions a separate emitter and receiver opposite one another, allowing an object to be detected when it interrupts the optical path. This operating principle provides dependable detection over substantially longer distances than many diffuse-reflective sensing arrangements.
Operating from a 10–30 V DC supply, the PE12CNT15PO-10M combines a compact 12 mm cylindrical format with a long 10 m cable for installations requiring extended wiring. Its rugged polycarbonate construction and IP67 protection rating make it suitable for demanding industrial environments, while compliance with standards for powered doors and gates supports its use in access and obstruction-detection systems.

Reliable Long-Range Through-Beam Detection
Through-beam photoelectric sensing uses separate emitter and receiver units installed opposite one another. The emitter directs an infrared beam towards the receiver, and an object is detected when it interrupts this optical path. Because the receiver monitors a dedicated beam rather than relying on light reflected directly from the target, through-beam systems can provide reliable detection across long distances and for objects with varying colours and surface finishes.
The Carlo Gavazzi PE12 series combines this dependable sensing principle with compact cylindrical construction suitable for industrial equipment and powered access systems. The PE12CNT15PO-10M receiver provides a 15 m sensing capability, PNP NO switching and an extended 10 m cable, making it particularly useful where the sensing point is positioned a significant distance from the associated control equipment.
Typical Applications
- Industrial automatic doors and powered gates.
- Doorway and access obstruction detection.
- Industrial conveyors and material handling systems.
- Packaging and production machinery.
- Object presence and position detection.
- Long-range product detection and counting.
- Warehouse and loading bay automation.
