Compatibility and replacement
Order with the complete Panasonic part number EX-24B; suffixes such as -P (PNP output), -C5 (5 m cable), -J (connector) or -R (rear sensing) change the version, so check the label of the old part.
The values in the table come from the official Panasonic Industry product data; if your old unit shows different values, send us a photo of its label and we will check it.
Before you replace it
- Cable or connector type
- Mounting dimensions
- Sensing mode (thru-beam, retroreflective, diffuse)
