RS Pro Fotoelektrik Sensör, Reflektörlü, Algılama Aralığı: 0,05 → 7 m, PNP, Stil: Silindir, IP67

SICK Photoelectric Sensor, IP67, PNP Output Type - VL180-2P42431F38

This photoelectric sensor is a retro-reflective detector designed for industrial automation applications. It provides object detection using an LED light source and is housed in a Compact barrel form suitable for flange mounting in machinery and control systems. The unit is built to operate across a wide ambient temperature range and connects via a 4‑pin M12 electrical interface.

Features & Benefits

• IP67 enclosure for use in dusty or wet workplaces
  PNP switching output for direct PLC interfacing
  500μs response time for Rapid detection and control
  Operates from 0 to 30 V DC for low-voltage systems
  Withstands currents up to 100mA to drive typical loads
  Nickel‑plated brass and polycarbonate body for mechanical resilience

**Applications**

• Suitable for presence detection of polymethyl methacrylate parts on conveyor lines
  Ideal for assembly stations requiring fast object sensing
  Used with automated sorting equipment in electronics manufacturing
  Can be used for end‑of‑travel sensing on Compact actuators

What connector type allows for quick field wiring?

It uses a 4‑pin M12 connector to simplify installation and replacement.

How does the sensor cope with temperature variations on plant?

The device is rated to operate between −25°C to 55°C to suit typical indoor industrial environments.

What materials is the detector able to sense reliably?

The optical arrangement is suitable for detecting items MADE from polymethyl methacrylate when used with a retro‑reflective target.
