Sensor controller purpose
The Autonics PA-12-PGP is a plug-in sensor controller designed for industrial electricians and automation technicians. It provides a single PNP open-collector output to interface one external sensor. The unit accepts 110 or 220 VAC mains supply at 50 or 60 Hz and delivers 12 VDC at approximately 30 mA to power the connected sensor. Maximum power consumption is 4 VA.
Suitable users and limits
This controller suits technicians who need a compact DIN-rail module for a single PNP sensor in a 12 VDC loop. It is not intended for applications that require multiple sensor inputs or NPN-compatible logic. Buyers needing relay or analogue outputs should look at a different device.
Deciding specification
The defining parameter is the single PNP open-collector control output paired with a 12 VDC sensor supply rated at roughly 30 mA. If your sensor demands a different logic type, voltage or current level, this module will not match the requirement.

Questions about this item
What power supply does the PA-12-PGP sensor controller require to operate?
The unit runs on 110/220VAC at 50/60Hz and draws a maximum of 4VA.
Can I connect a PNP open-collector sensor that needs 12VDC to this controller?
Yes, the controller provides 12VDC at approximately 30mA for one external sensor and accepts PNP open-collector or PNP universal input logic.
How do I verify the control output is active after wiring the sensor?
The single PNP open-collector control output will switch when the connected sensor triggers, confirming normal operation.
