1047584

Overview

The SICK part number 1047584 corresponds to the GTB6-P1212, a background suppression photoelectric sensor. This device utilizes visible red light with a PinPoint-LED source and operates on a DC switching principle. It features a square housing shape with dimensions of 20 mm x 50 mm x 39 mm. The maximum switching distance is specified as 950 mm when measuring against an object with a 90% diffuse reflectivity ratio based on DIN 5033 standard white. The optical axis length is 625 nm, and the beam spot size at a distance of 700 mm measures Ø 8 mm. The unit includes a five-turn potentiometer for setting adjustments.

Feature Summary

• Background suppression functionality ensures reliable detection regardless of target surface color or reflectivity variations.
• Visible red light emission allows for precise visual aiming during installation and alignment processes.
• PinPoint-LED technology provides a focused optical axis for accurate positioning in confined spaces.

Applications

• Automated assembly line component presence verification
• Packaging machinery object detection and counting
• Conveyor belt sorting systems requiring consistent range performance

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific订货代号 matches the required electrical interface and mounting configuration. Confirm environmental ratings align with operational conditions. Ensure compatibility with existing control system voltage levels before integration into the final design.

Selection Notes

Select this model where background suppression is critical for distinguishing targets from complex backgrounds. The visible red LED aids in setup accuracy compared to infrared alternatives. Evaluate the 950 mm switching range against actual application distances to ensure adequate safety margins.
