Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the CX-422-P-C05 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Sensing method (Reflective, Diffuse)
• Sensing distance (31.496" / 800mm)
• Supply voltage range (12V ~ 24V)
• Output configuration (PNP - Open Collector)
• Light source wavelength (Infrared 860nm)
• Response time (1ms)
• Ingress protection rating (IP67)
• Cable length (78.74" / 2m)
• Operating temperature range (-25°C ~ 55°C)

The CX-422-P qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters. The primary distinction is product status and packaging configuration.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The CX-422-P is the direct substitute for the CX-422-P-C05. Both parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters required for functional equivalence in reflective optical sensing applications.

The CX-422-P offers the advantage of active product status, ensuring ongoing manufacturer support and availability. The CX-422-P also carries ROHS3 compliance, representing current regulatory alignment compared to the RoHS compliance of the obsolete CX-422-P-C05.

For applications currently utilizing the CX-422-P-C05, transition to the CX-422-P is supported by complete parameter equivalence and eliminates obsolescence risk.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the CX-422-P directly replace the CX-422-P-C05 in existing installations?
