Product Description
The PA12BNT. is a through
beam sensor set specially designed for elevators,
escalators, entrance control
to meet the requirements in
the door market. The housing is very robust and is
known for its high long-term
reliability. The emitter has
a mute input to turn it off
for evaluation of the sensor
function.
Available in 10-30 VDC
version.

Installation Hints
To avoid interference from inductive voltage/
current peaks, separate the prox. switch
power cables from any other power cables,
e.g. motor, contactor or solenoid cables
Relief of cable strain
Protection of the sensing face
Switch mounted on mobile carrier
A proximity switch should not serve as
mechanical stop
Any repetitive flexing of the
cable should be avoided
