RS PRO Fotoelektrický snímač, řada: RS PRO LED Blok 3 kolíků, výstup: NPN Retroreflexní IP67

Sick GL6 Series Photoelectric Sensor, 100mA Maximum Current, IP67 - GL6-N1112F38

This photoelectric sensor is a retro-reflective LED device designed for presence detection in industrial automation. It employs a dual-lens retro-reflective principle to detect various materials at ranges suitable for production lines and packaging systems, and it is supplied with a reflector and mounting bracket for straightforward installation.

Features & Benefits

• 10V to 30V DC supply supports common industrial control voltages
  NPN output permits integration with standard sinking inputs
  Response time 625μs enables high-speed object detection
  IP67 enclosure allows operation in wet or dusty environments
  Detects plastics and PMMA for reliable material sensing
  Cable with 3-wire connection simplifies wiring and connection

Applications

• Suitable for conveyor-based plastic part detection in assembly lines
  Ideal for packaging systems requiring retro-reflective sensing at distance
  used with PLC inputs in automated sorting installations
  Can be used for presence checks where IP67 protection is needed

What environmental temperatures can the sensor tolerate during operation?

It operates between -25°C and +55°C and can be stored from -40°C to +70°C for resilient thermal handling.

What mechanical accessories are included for mounting and alignment?

A stainless-steel mounting bracket and a P250 reflector are supplied to aid stable bracket mounting and reflector alignment.

How much current does the sensor draw and what is its output capability?

Quiescent current is around 30mA without load, and the output can source/sink up to 100mA, reduced to 50mA when supply exceeds 24V.

Which optical characteristics affect detection distance and reliability?

The unit uses a 650nm LED with polarisation filtering and a dual-lens arrangement
sensing range varies by reflector type, reaching up to 6m with the PL80A reflector.
