FAQ

Question?

What does the ‘PC’ in the model number XS8-C40PC440 signify?

Answer?

The ‘PC’ in this Telemecanique model number typically indicates the output type. ‘P’ stands for PNP logic, and ‘C’ signifies a complementary output, meaning it provides both a Normally Open (NO) and a Normally Closed (NC) signal.

Question?

Is this sensor flush-mountable or non-flush mountable?

Answer?

This model, with a sensing distance of 20 mm in a 40×40 mm form factor, is a non-flush mountable (or non-shielded) sensor. This means it requires a metal-free zone around the sensing face to achieve its maximum rated sensing distance.

Question?

What type of electrical connection does this sensor use?

Answer?

The XS8-C40PC440 uses screw terminals for electrical connection. You will need to remove the terminal block cover to access the terminals and wire the sensor accordingly, usually requiring a cable gland for proper sealing and strain relief.
