1. Introduction

This manual is a reference guide for Carlo Gavazzi IO-Link photoelectric sensors PD30ETBxxxBPxxIO. It describes
how to install, setup and use the product for its intended use.

1.1. Description

Carlo Gavazzi photoelectric sensors are devices designed and manufactured in accordance with IEC international
standards and are subject to the Low Voltage (2014/35/EU) and Electromagnetic Compatibility (2014/30/
EU) EC directives.
All rights to this document are reserved by Carlo Gavazzi Industri, copies may be made for internal use only.
Please do not hesitate to make any suggestions for improving this document.

1.2. Validity of documentation

This manual is valid only for PD30ETBxxxBPxxIO photoelectric sensors with IO-Link and until new documentation
is published.

1.3. Who should use this documentation

This instruction manual describes the function, operation and installation of the product for its intended use.
This manual contains important information regarding installation and must be read and completely understood
by specialized personnel dealing with these photoelectric sensors.
We highly recommend that you read the manual carefully before installing the sensor. Save the manual for future
use. The Installation manual is intended for qualified technical personnel.

1.4. Use of the product

These photoelectric diffuse reflective sensors are designed with Background Suppression, meaning it is
detecting the object via triangulation. The reciver is a detector array that performs precise detection independent
of the colour of the object and allows elimination of a background.
The received signal level can be read via the Process data in IO-Link mode.
The PD30ETBxxxBPxxIO sensors can operate with or without IO-Link communication. By means of an IO-Link
master it is possible to operate and configure these devices.

1.5. Safety precautions

This sensor must not be used in applications where personal safety depends on the function of the sensor (The
sensor is not designed according to the EU Machinery Directive).
Installation and use must be carried out by trained technical personnel with basic electrical installation knowledge.
The installer is responsible for correct installation according to local safety regulations and must ensure that
a defective sensor will not result in any hazard to people or equipment. If the sensor is defective, it must be
replaced and secured against unauthorised use.
