Connection of Photoelectric Sensors
Connection Type
Generally , there are 3 types of connections for sensors, a cable, connector and terminal block, used.
The standard cable length is 2 meters.
For connector connection, M8 4-pin connectors are mainly used, as some sensors has M12 connectors and M12 pigtail cables.
