Cutler-Hammer 55 Series Photoelectric Sensors are identical
to Eaton's 50 Series except without the interchangeable outputs
or logic functions. They offer durability and high optical
performance in a cost effective, self-contained package. The 55
Series features sensors with AC and DC operation in a single
unit. A relay option is available on these models that provides
a 3 Amp SPDT relay output for high current switching.
Sensors are available that in thrubeam, reflex, polarized
reflex, diffuse reflective and fiber optic sensing modes. Each
sensor features a built-in swivel bracket for easy mounting and
to allow precise adjustment of the sensor alignment.
Product Features
High optical performance includes 100-foot (30.5m)
thru-beam range and 6-foot (1.8m) diffuse reflective range
Both AC and DC operation in a single unit
Short circuit protected solid-state outputs on AC/DC and
DC-only versions (except thru-beam)
Relay output option provides 3 Amp current switching on
AC/DC models
Thru-beam models feature an infrared sensing beam along
with a visible red LED behind the lens in the source unit to
aid in sensor alignment
Fiber optic sensors operate in thru-beam or diffuse
reflective mode depending on the fiber optic cable selected
Glass fiber optic cables plug into NEMA 4 rated sockets
on the front of the sensor. Sockets are leakproof even when
the fiber optic cables are not plugged in
Fully potted construction for use in areas subject to
washdown, high shock and/or vibration
Choice of pre-wired power cable or built-in
mini-connector versions. Standard pre-wired cable length is
6 feet (1.8m)
Built-in, patented, 360°
rotation 10° tilt
ball-swivel base
