1061445

Overview

The SICK part number 1061445 corresponds to the MZT7-03VPS-KU0 photoelectric sensor. This device is a PNP, normally open proximity sensor with a sensing range of 10 mm and a safe sensing range of 8.1 mm. It features an M12 connector with three pins and utilizes a rectangular housing design. The unit operates on DC 3-wire electrical wiring and achieves a switching frequency of 2,000 Hz. The enclosure rating is IP65 and IP67, ensuring protection against dust and water ingress for industrial environments.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes different oscillator frequency technology to enhance detection stability
• Provides reliable object detection within a short sensing range
• Features a compact rectangular housing suitable for space-constrained installations

Applications

• Automated assembly line positioning
• Packaging machine component verification
• Industrial robot end-of-arm tooling detection

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific variant matches the required output type (PNP) and connection interface (M12, 3-pin). Confirm environmental requirements align with the IP65/IP67 rating. Ensure the 10 mm sensing range meets application needs. Cross-reference the ordering code 1061445 with official SICK documentation to confirm current availability and technical specifications before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a short-range, high-speed detection capability is required in harsh industrial conditions. The M12 connector facilitates standardized wiring integration. Consider the PNP output configuration for compatibility with standard PLC inputs. The robust housing design supports flush or non-flush mounting options depending on the specific mechanical constraints of the installation site.

Part Context

This component belongs to the MZT7 series of photoelectric sensors from SICK. The series is designed for general-purpose proximity detection tasks. Variants within this family differ primarily by cable length, connector type, and output configuration. The MZT7 series emphasizes durability and precise short-range detection for various automation applications.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other MZT7 variants with matching electrical parameters, such as MZT7-03VPS-KRDS08 or MZT7-03VNO-KU0, provided the cable length and connector style are compatible. Verify that any replacement maintains the PNP NO output and M12 interface.
