1062214

Overview

The SICK model 1062214 is a photoelectric retro-reflective sensor from the Z18 Simple Sense series. It utilizes visible red light with a PinPoint LED source to detect objects within a sensing range of up to 17 meters. The device features a rectangular housing design and supports potentiometer adjustment for operational configuration. It is engineered for position-independent detection of small objects, including transparent, perforated, or uneven surfaces, ensuring reliable performance in industrial automation environments.

Feature Summary

• Visible red light emission for clear aiming and object detection
• Position-independent detection capability within the light array
• Suitable for detecting challenging targets such as transparent or shiny objects

Applications

• Detection of transparent objects on production lines
• Monitoring of perforated materials
• Identification of uneven or shiny surfaces
• Handling of flat objects with position tolerances

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering number 1062214 against official SICK documentation to confirm compatibility with required reflectors and mounting accessories. Ensure that the visible red light specification aligns with environmental lighting conditions. Confirm interface requirements and adjustment methods prior to integration into existing control systems.

Selection Notes

Select this model when position-independent detection is required for small or difficult-to-detect objects. The visible red light aids in precise alignment during installation. Consider the maximum switching distance and minimum object size constraints relative to the application geometry. Evaluate the need for potentiometer adjustment versus digital interfaces based on system complexity.
