Prism Series Sensors
Product Description
The Prism Series from
Eaton’s Electrical Sector is
a cost-effective line of
miniature photoelectric
sensors with twice the
optical gain of other sensors
in this product class. Forward
and Right Angle viewing
models feature identical gain
and optical characteristics for
the best fit on your machine.
A gain control allows quick
adjustment for peak optical
performance in a variety of
applications.
Four sensing modes are
available, including polarized
reflex to eliminate reliability
problems when sensing shiny
objects. Visible red sensing
beams throughout the Prism
Series allow you to see
exactly where the sensors
are aimed for easier setup.
Models are available
preconfigured in either light
or dark operate modes.
The unique threaded body
with flat sides allows quick
mounting in a 3/4 in hole or
against any flat surface.
Internal components are
rigidly sealed in a solid
encapsulated package for
excellent performance in
high-vibration and high-shock
applications.
See Page V8-T5-73 for
details on the Prism Series’
flexible isolated output.
Features
Small size for use in a wide
variety of applications and
locations

DANGER
THIS SENSOR IS NOT A
SAFETY DEVICE AND IS NOT
INTENDED TO BE USED AS A
SAFETY DEVICE. This sensor
is designed only to detect
and read certain data in an
electronic manner and
perform no use apart from
that, specifically no safety-
related use. This sensor
product does not include
self-checking redundant
circuitry, and the failure of
this sensor product could
cause either an energized
or de-energized output
condition, which could result
in death, serious bodily
injury, or property damage.
