Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi PE12CNT15-10M Through-Beam Photoelectric Emitter?
The Carlo Gavazzi PE12CNT15-10M is a compact through-beam photoelectric emitter designed for reliable optical detection in industrial doors, lifts, escalators and entrance-control systems. As part of the Carlo Gavazzi PE12 photoelectric sensor series, it works with a compatible receiver to create a through-beam sensing system with a rated operating distance of up to 15 m.
The PE12 series uses modulated infrared light to provide dependable detection while maintaining a compact installation profile. Its special snap-on cylindrical housing is designed for convenient mounting in doors and similar equipment, making the series particularly suitable where installation space is limited.
Operating from a 10–30 V DC supply, the PE12CNT15-10M combines industrial DC compatibility with an IP67 protection rating and a durable plastic housing. This PE12CNT15 variant is supplied with a 10 m cable, providing additional wiring length for installations where the control equipment is positioned away from the sensing point.

Reliable Through-Beam Detection for Doors and Entrance Systems
A through-beam photoelectric system positions an emitter opposite a compatible receiver. The emitter continuously transmits an infrared beam towards the receiver, allowing the control system to detect when a person, component or other object interrupts the optical path.
The Carlo Gavazzi PE12 series is designed particularly for lifts, escalators and entrance-control applications. Its compact housing, long sensing range and robust environmental protection make the PE12CNT15-10M a practical emitter for door systems and industrial automation installations requiring reliable optical transmission.
Typical Applications
- Automatic door systems.
- Lift and elevator doors.
- Escalator monitoring equipment.
- Entrance and access-control systems.
- Industrial doorway obstruction detection.
- Long-range through-beam detection systems.
