Balluff BGL 30A-001-S49 Fork sensor, PNP, 10 x 50 x 68mm Part number BGL0016

This fork sensor uses a fixed optical gap to detect the presence or interruption of small parts, labels or webs passing through it, with a PNP output offering both normally open and normally closed switching. The zinc die-cast housing and glass sensing surface, combined with an IP67 rating, suit use in demanding industrial environments where dust or moisture ingress is a concern. Connection is via an M8x1 three-pin male connector, and the sensor mounts using M4 screws, making it suitable for integration into compact automation and packaging machinery. It operates from a 10-30 VDC supply and supports switching frequencies up to 1500 Hz.
