The Autonics BJ3M-PDT-C belongs to the BJ series – Compact High Performance Photoelectric Sensors.
On a production line a failed photoelectric sensor stops the conveyor or the machine cycle, so maintenance teams keep the exact model in stock; replacing like for like keeps the sensing mode, range and wiring unchanged.

M8 connector cable is sold separately. (cable – AWG22, Core diameter: 0.08mm, Number of cores: 60, Insulator out diameter: Ø1.25mm)

Compatibility and replacement
Order with the full model code BJ3M-PDT-C: in the Autonics code the letters and digits after the series select the size, sensing distance or resolution, the output type and the supply, so a different suffix may not fit your wiring.
If the label of the old unit is worn or the model is discontinued, send us a photo and we will confirm the current Autonics equivalent before quoting.
Replacement checklist
- Reflector or receiver if the system uses one
- Supply voltage
- Sensing method (through-beam, retro-reflective, diffuse)
