Sick GRTB18S-P2417 Photoelectric Sensor

Sick GRTB18S-P2417 Photoelectric Sensor Part No. 1076101 The Sick GRTB18S-P2417 Photoelectric Sensor delivers reliable proximity sensing with background suppression, ideal for precise object detection in confined spaces. Using a PinPoint red LED with a wavelength of 650 nm, it offers a sensing range of 20 to 150 mm, with a maximum range of 300 mm for specific use cases. Its axial optical axis and M18 cylindrical housing simplify alignment and installation. The 7 mm light spot at 100 mm provides accurate and focused detection, making it suitable for varied materials and surfaces. The sensor features light/dark switching and a PNP output, and settings can be easily adjusted via a 270° potentiometer. With a switching frequency of 1,000 Hz and response time under 500 µs, it’s well-suited for high-speed automation tasks. Built from ABS plastic with a PMMA optical face, the sensor is durable and rated IP67 for protection against dust and moisture. Operating in temperatures from –25 °C to +55 °C, it’s perfect for demanding environments across manufacturing, logistics, and assembly lines.

Packaging Verification: Confirms package presence or position before sealing or labeling, even with reflective surfaces. Part Detection in Assembly Lines: Ensures components are in place or aligned correctly during automated assembly operations. Robotics and Pick-and-Place: Enhances object recognition in robotic arms for precise gripping and positioning tasks. Compact Equipment Integration: Ideal for tight spaces due to its M18 cylindrical design and short housing depth. Precautions: Ensure Correct Wiring: Incorrect connections can cause sensor failure Avoid Overvoltage: Operating within 10-30V DC prevents damage Protect from Extreme Heat: Avoid installing near high-temperature sources Regular Cleaning: Keep the optical lens free from dust and debris for optimal performance Note : All tax and custom duty should be pay by buyer only.
