AC Two-Wire Plastic Cylindrical Photoelectric Sensors Selection Guide: Technical Criteria & Application Standards
AC Two-Wire Plastic Cylindrical Photoelectric Sensors selection guide: technical parameters, mounting and compliance standards, and Lanbao comparison.
AC two-wire plastic cylindrical photoelectric sensors are photoelectric sensors with an M30 threaded plastic housing, powered by 20-250 V AC, with the output connected in series with the load. They are used in circuits that have only an AC supply and where openings on the order of meters are monitored, such as doors, ramps, warehouse passages and wide conveyors. The AC models of the Lanbao PR30TS series are listed in 100 cm diffuse-reflective, 5 m retroreflective and 20 m through-beam types, with NO or NC output and with a 2 m cable or an M12 connector. Determine the sensing type and the distance suited to the opening; compare the NO or NC output, the cabled or connector connection and the sensor's load current limit from the product data. Because of the two-wire design, a voltage drop remains across the sensor while it is conducting; for sensitive low-voltage loads, check this value in the manufacturer data. AC two-wire plastic photoelectric sensors with an M18 housing are in a separate category; since an M30 housing does not fit an M18 mounting hole, it is not a substitute for an existing M18 model. The AC Two-Wire Plastic Cylindrical Photoelectric Sensors category on Welibaba includes 14 active models from leading manufacturers such as Lanbao.
Key Technical Parameters for Selecting AC Two-Wire Plastic Cylindrical Photoelectric Sensors

| Parameter | Typical Catalog Values | Verification Note |
|---|---|---|
| Sensing Distance | 100 cm, 20mt, 5mt | Verify against project schedule and load calculation |
| Connection Type | 2m Kablo, M12 Konnektör | Verify against project schedule and load calculation |
| Housing Code | PR30TS | Verify against project schedule and load calculation |
| Model Type | Cisimden Yansımalı, Karşılıklı, Reflektörlü | Verify against project schedule and load calculation |
Installation, Compatibility, and Commissioning Checklist
- Electrical & Mechanical Matching: Confirm that rated voltage, current capacity, and mounting dimensions align with the upstream and downstream components in Cylindrical Photoelectric Sensors.
- Environmental & Enclosure Rating: Check IP protection class, housing material, and terminal capacity for dusty, humid, or high-vibration industrial environments.
- Related Product Groups: If your application calls for a different form factor or rating, compare sibling categories such as AC Two-Wire 90-Degree Plastic Cylindrical Photoelectric Sensors, AC Two-Wire Metal Cylindrical Photoelectric Sensors, AC Two-Wire Plastic-Body Cylindrical Photoelectric Sensors.
