1071808

Overview

The SICK part number 1071808 corresponds to the MZT7-03VPS-KU0, a PNP NO inductive proximity sensor. It features a cylindrical design with a 10 mm sensing diameter and a nominal switching distance of 3 mm. The unit is equipped with a 5-meter PUR cable featuring stripped ends for direct wiring. It operates on a DC 3-wire configuration and provides an IP65/IP67 ingress protection rating. The device supports operating temperatures up to 80 °C.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes PNP normally open switching output for reliable signal transmission
• Constructed with durable PUR cabling suitable for industrial environments
• Designed for flush mounting applications within confined spaces

Applications

• Automated material handling systems
• Packaging machinery layer detection
• General factory automation positioning

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix KU0 confirms the 5-meter stripped PUR cable variant. Ensure the control system voltage matches the DC 3-wire PNP specification. Confirm that the 10 mm sensing range meets the application requirements before deployment.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a compact 10 mm form factor is required for tight installation spaces. Choose the PNP output type if the PLC input logic requires sourcing current. The 5-meter cable length offers flexibility for routing without additional extensions.

Part Context

This component belongs to the MZT7 series of inductive sensors from SICK. The series is characterized by its robust construction and suitability for harsh industrial conditions. It serves as a standard solution for non-contact object detection in automated manufacturing lines.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other MZT7 variants sharing the same electrical interface and mechanical dimensions. Verify compatibility with existing mounting brackets and wiring harnesses during substitution.
