1068775

Overview

The SICK 1068775 is a photoelectric retro-reflective sensor featuring a Reflex Array dual lens system. It utilizes visible red light with a PinPoint LED source at a wavelength of 635 nm. The unit measures 21.5 mm x 36 mm x 37.7 mm and weighs 38 grams. It offers a sensing range of 0 to 1.5 meters when used with the P250F reflector. The device supports minimum object detection of 5 mm and includes potentiometer adjustment for configuration.

Feature Summary

• Equipped with a Reflex Array dual lens system enabling reliable detection at minimum distances to the reflector.
• Capable of detecting transparent, perforated, uneven, shiny, and flat objects with position tolerances.
• Features a compact rectangular housing design suitable for space-constrained industrial environments.

Applications

• Detection of transparent objects
• Detection of perforated objects
• Detection of uneven or shiny surfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering number against official SICK documentation to ensure compatibility with required accessories such as connectors or mounting systems. Confirm that the P250F reflector is included in the procurement scope if the specified sensing range is critical for the application. Cross-reference technical drawings for dimensional accuracy prior to integration.

Selection Notes

Select this model when precise detection of challenging materials like transparency or perforations is required. The dual lens system provides advantages over standard retro-reflective sensors in close-proximity applications. Ensure the operating environment temperature aligns with the LED service life specifications provided in the official datasheet.
