Lanbao PSR-TM20 DC Through-Beam Photoelectric Sensor
Lanbao PSR-TM20 Series is a compact DC through-beam photoelectric sensor set for automation systems that need long-distance beam-interruption detection in a small ABS housing. It uses separate emitter and receiver units aligned across the sensing path, giving reliable object detection independent of target surface color or reflectivity.
This listing covers PSR-TM20DNB, PSR-TM20DPB, and their E2 M12 connector versions. The series supports 0.3-20m through-beam sensing, infrared 850nm light source, NPN or PNP receiver output, NO/NC logic, 10-30V DC supply, IP67 protection, and either a 2m PVC cable or M12 4-pin connector.
For related Lanbao photoelectric sensors, compare the Lanbao PR18-TM20 DC M18 Through-Beam Series, Lanbao PR18S-TM20 DC Through-Beam Series, and Lanbao PR30S-TM20 DC M30 Through-Beam Series. For background-suppression sensing, see the Lanbao PTB-YC200 Background Suppression Series.

Integration Notes & Hardware Guidance
- Beam alignment: Through-beam sensing requires separate emitter and receiver units to be aligned across the sensing path before commissioning.
- Output selection: Choose DNB variants for NPN receiver output or DPB variants for PNP receiver output, matching the controller input type.
- Connection selection: Choose fixed 2m cable versions for direct wiring or E2 M12 4-pin connector versions when detachable wiring and easier replacement are preferred.
- Power planning: Confirm the 10-30V DC supply, load current, and controller input wiring before connecting the receiver output.
- Installation check: Verify mounting rigidity, beam path clearance, optical alignment, and indicator behavior after the emitter and receiver are installed.

FAQ
What detection mode does the PSR-TM20 Series use?
It uses through-beam detection, with separate emitter and receiver units mounted opposite each other.
What sensing distance does this series support?
The official sensing-distance reference is 0.3-20m.
How do I choose between DNB and DPB variants?
Choose DNB variants for NPN receiver output or DPB variants for PNP receiver output, depending on your controller input wiring.
How do I choose between cable and E2 versions?
Cable versions use a fixed 2m PVC cable, while E2 versions use an M12 4-pin connector for detachable wiring and easier sensor replacement.
Does this sensor require a reflector?
No. Through-beam sensing uses a separate emitter and receiver, so it does not require a reflector.
