## **Product Descri tion p** 

The PD30CNT15 sensor The potentiometer function family comes in a compact for adjustment of the 10 x 30 x 20 mm reinforced sensitivity makes the PMMA/ABS housing. sensors highly flexible. The The sensors are useful in output type is preset (NPN applications where highor PNP), and the output accuracy detection as well switching function is NO as small size is required. and NC output. Compact housing and high power LED for excellent performance-size ratio.
