Leuze HT46CI4P-M12 Photoelectric Sensor | Background Suppression, 4m, PNP, M12, IP65, Laser

Leuze HT46CI4P-M12 sensor specifications. Laser background suppression sensor, 4m range, PNP output, M12 connector, IP65, for precise long-range detection.

Product Overview

The Leuze HT46CI4P-M12 is a photoelectric sensor featuring background suppression (BGS) technology with a visible red laser light source. It is designed for precise, long-range detection up to 4 meters, accurately distinguishing the target from the background. The sensor provides a PNP (sourcing) switching output and features a standard M12 connector. Its robust IP65 housing makes it suitable for demanding industrial applications requiring reliable, long-distance object positioning or presence detection.

Technical Specifications

Key Features

• Laser Background Suppression (BGS):​ Provides precise, long-range detection (up to 4m) with excellent background discrimination

• Visible Red Laser Spot:​ Allows for easy and precise alignment

• PNP Output:​ Sourcing output for direct connection to common PLC inputs

• M12 Connector:​ Standard industrial quick-disconnect

• High Accuracy:​ Laser technology enables precise switching point determination

• IP65 Protection:​ Dust-tight and protected against water jets

• Wide Voltage Range:​ 10-30V DC for flexible system integration

• Compact Design:​ Suitable for installations with space constraints

Applications

• Long-range object detection and positioning

• Precise fill level control in large containers or silos

• Roll diameter measurement

• Presence detection on extended conveyors

• Object height verification at a distance

Important Notes

1. Laser BGS provides a very precise switching point, ideal for applications where the target distance is critical.

2. The visible laser spot simplifies alignment but laser safety Class 2​ precautions should be observed; do not stare into the beam.

3. The sensing range is up to 4 meters; ensure the target is within this range for reliable operation.

4. A compatible M12, 4-pin male connector cable must be purchased separately.

5. The sensor is not designed for use in hazardous (explosive) atmospheres.
