The NA2-N12 is a general-purpose area sensor featuring a slim body design with 12 beam channels for reliable object detection and positioning. It offers a sensing range of 220 mm (8.661 in) with a beam pitch of 20 mm (0.787 in) and a sensing height of 5 m (16.40 ft), providing flexible detection capabilities across a wide area. The sensor is available in both NPN and PNP output configurations with NPN open-collector transistor output, operating at 12 to 24 V DC (±10%), and includes protective features such as reverse supply polarity protection and surge absorption. The NA2-N12 is commonly used in factory automation, object detection, and positioning tasks where reliable multi-beam sensing is required, with optional accessories including slit masks and mounting brackets for enhanced flexibility and integration into various industrial environments.
