Light curtain sensor of only 12 mm thickness

Slim design for easy installationSlim design for easy installation
Small 12 mm × 30 mm dimensions enable variety of applications.
The cable exit is specifically designed to neatly fit with other equipment.
SSX20-T160 Actual size
Output selectable as NPN / PNP typeOutput selectable as NPN / PNP type
Output selectable as either NPN or PNP type.
Enhanced robustness
Robust aluminum sensor housing with a die-cast zinc mounting.
Maximum 1440 mm of detection width by stacking two sensors
By stacking two sensors, the mutual interference prevention function allows the 20 mm pitch and a 1,440 mm wide detection area.
Optical axis pitch of the beams remain 20 mm when two sensors are stacked (Parallel beam mode).
Switchable between parallel beam and cross beam modes
Objects down to 15 mm diameter are detectable even within the 20 mm pitch optical axis interval. *1
Comprehensive lineup
Eight models available for detection widths from 160 mm to 720 mm.

Dimensions (Unit : mm)

Parallel beam mode

Cross beam mode

| Metal Processing
In the Cross Beam Mode, Moving Objects at Random Orientation

In the cross beam mode, moving objects at random orientation can be detected down to 15 mm diameter. Use the area 3/4 of the center between the transmitter and the receiver as an effective detection area to detect opaque objects 15 mm or more in diameter.
