CP18 Series photoelectric sensors are not
designed for high pressure washdown or
exposure to ketones, halogenated hydro-
carbons, esters, amines or acids and alka-
lis. They should be cleaned with mild soap,
warm water and a clean cloth.
The clear polycarbonate connector features a bright red alignment LED which causes the
back end to glow when the LED is on.
