Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is the price of the GTB10-N4211? A: Price depends on quantity and order timing. Please contact AUMI for the best quotation and application-specific advice.
Q2: Can the GTB10-N4211 detect transparent materials? A: The GTB10-N4211 uses Background Suppression, making it best suited for opaque objects. For transparent materials (glass, clear plastic), we recommend SICK through-beam sensors or dedicated transparent object detection sensors.
Q3: How to connect GTB10-N4211 (NPN) to Siemens PLC? A: Siemens S7-1200/1500 typically uses PNP (sourcing) inputs. For NPN sensors, check the DI module configuration or use an interposing relay. For PNP output, select model GTB10-P4211.
Q4: What is the difference between GTB10-N4211 and GTB10-P4211? A: GTB10-N4211 has NPN output (sinking), while GTB10-P4211 has PNP output (sourcing). Choose according to your PLC input requirements.
