Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi PC50CND10RP Diffuse-Reflective Photoelectric Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi PC50CND10RP is a versatile diffuse-reflective photoelectric sensor designed for reliable non-contact object detection in industrial machinery and automation systems. As part of the Carlo Gavazzi PC50 photoelectric sensor series, it combines a long adjustable sensing range with a relay change-over output and wide AC/DC supply capability.
The PC50CND10RP provides an adjustable rated operating distance of 10–1000 mm and uses 880 nm modulated infrared light to detect objects directly from their reflected light. Because both the emitter and receiver are contained within the same housing, no separate reflector or opposing receiver is required, simplifying installation on conveyors, packaging machines and general automation equipment.
With a 12–240 V DC / 24–240 V AC power supply, SPDT relay change-over output with NO+NC contacts, selectable light/dark switching and a pre-wired cable connection, the PC50CND10RP is suitable for a wide variety of industrial control circuits. Its compact rectangular plastic housing and IP67 protection provide dependable operation in demanding industrial environments.

Reliable Photoelectric Detection for Industrial Automation
Diffuse-reflective photoelectric sensors operate by transmitting light towards a target and detecting the light reflected from its surface. With the emitter and receiver incorporated into one compact housing, the PC50CND10RP provides straightforward non-contact object detection without requiring a separate reflector or remotely mounted receiver.
The PC50CND10RP combines a maximum 1 m sensing distance with sensitivity adjustment, selectable light/dark operation and a versatile SPDT relay output. Its exceptionally wide AC/DC power supply range also allows the sensor to integrate directly with many different industrial control architectures, making it a practical solution for both machine builders and maintenance applications.
