## **Product Descri tion p**
## ~~el~~
The PD30CNT15 sensor family comes in a compact 10 x 30 x 20 mm reinforced PMMA/ABS housing.
The sensors are useful in applications where high-accuracy detection as well as small size is required. Compact housing and high power LED for excellent performance-size ratio. The Teach-In function for adjustment of the sensitivi-

## **Teach functions**
## **Normal operation, optimized switching point**
1. Line up the emitter and receiver. Yellow LED and Green LED are ON.
2. Press the button for 3 seconds until both LEDs flashes simultaneously.
- (The first switch point is stored)
3. Place the object between the emitter and receiver in the detection zone.
4. Press the button once and the sensor is ready to operate (Green LED ON, Yellow LED ON) (The second switch point is stored)

## **For maximum sensing distance**
## **(default setting)**
1. Line up the emitter and receiver, place the object between the emitter and receiver in the detection
- zone. Yellow LED is OFF and Green LED is ON.
2. Press the button for 3 seconds until both LEDs flashes simultaneously.
- (The first switch point is stored)
3. Press the button a second time and the sensor is ready to operate (Green LED ON, Yellow LED ON) (The second switch point is stored)

**(Transparent or semi-transparent objects)**
1. Line up the emitter and receiver. Yellow LED and Green LED are ON.
2. Press the button for 3 seconds until both LEDs flashes simultaneously.
**==> picture [72 x 72] intentionally omitted <==**
## **For dynamic set-up (running process)**
1. Line up the emitter and receiver. Green LED is ON, status on the yellow LED is not important.
2. Press the button for 3 second until both LEDs flashes simultaneously.
- (The first switch point is stored)
3. Press the button a second time and keep the button pressed for at least one process cycle, release the button and the sensor is ready to operate (The second switch point is stored)

About Novapart
Novapart is a B2B electronic component broker specialising in stock shortages and cost reduction. We source hard-to-find parts and identify compliant alternatives across a catalogue of 540,000+ components from 500+ manufacturers.
Learn more →Stock Shortage Specialist
When a component is unavailable, discontinued or has an unacceptable lead time, we tap into our network of vetted European and Asian distributors to source what you need — without compromising on quality or traceability.
Request a quote →Compliant Alternatives
We identify pin-to-pin, electrically equivalent substitutes that meet the same certifications (RoHS, AEC-Q100, REACH) as your original specification — validated against datasheets, not just part numbers. Often at a lower cost.
