1053193

Overview

The SICK 1053193 is a photoelectric sensor designed for industrial automation applications. It operates as a through-beam system, utilizing a separate emitter and receiver unit to detect objects by interrupting a light beam. This configuration provides high reliability for long-distance detection tasks in environments where standard retro-reflective sensors may be insufficient due to background interference or object reflectivity issues.

Feature Summary

• Through-beam detection principle for reliable object identification
• Separate emitter and receiver units for flexible installation
• Designed for robust industrial environment operation

Applications

• Long-distance object detection in automated assembly lines
• Presence sensing in packaging machinery
• Level monitoring in bulk material handling systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific model suffix against the official SICK datasheet to ensure correct voltage rating and output type compatibility with your control system. Confirm that the required cable length and connector type are available as separate accessories, as these are typically not included with the sensor head itself.

Selection Notes

Select this model when application requirements demand high detection reliability over extended distances or when dealing with highly reflective or transparent objects that challenge other sensor technologies. Ensure the mounting hardware and optical alignment fixtures are compatible with the mechanical design of the target equipment.

Part Context

This component belongs to SICK's portfolio of photoelectric sensors, which are widely used in factory automation for non-contact detection. The 1053193 specifically addresses scenarios requiring the separation of light source and detector, offering a solution distinct from retro-reflective or diffuse-reflective variants within the same product family.

Replacement Considerations

Consult SICK technical documentation for direct cross-references. Verify that any substitute maintains the same through-beam architecture, operating voltage, and switching output characteristics to ensure functional equivalence without redesigning the host interface.
