1072952

Overview

The SICK part number 1072952 corresponds to the MZT7-03VPS-KRD, a photoelectric sensor from the MZT7 series. It features a rectangular housing measuring 10 mm in width with a sensing range of 10 mm. The device utilizes a PNP normally open switching output and connects via an M8, 3-pin connector with a 0.3 m PUR cable. It operates on DC 3-wire electrical wiring and offers an enclosure rating of IP65 and IP67, supporting a maximum temperature of 80 °C.

Feature Summary

• Compact rectangular design suitable for tight installation spaces
• Robust construction with IP65 and IP67 protection ratings
• High thermal resistance up to 80 °C for demanding environments

Applications

• Automated material handling systems
• Packaging machinery object detection
• Industrial assembly line monitoring

Procurement Notes

Verify the complete order code matches the specific requirements for cable length, connector type, and switching output. Confirm that the M8 connector orientation and PUR cable specifications align with the existing system infrastructure. Ensure the operating voltage and switching current limits are compatible with the connected PLC or controller inputs before finalizing the procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a compact form factor is required alongside high ingress protection and thermal stability. The 10 mm sensing range is suitable for detecting standard industrial components at close proximity. Consider the M8 connector configuration for ease of wiring in controlled environments where frequent disconnection may be necessary.

Part Context

This component belongs to the MZT7 series of photoelectric sensors designed for general industrial automation. The series emphasizes durability and versatility across various mounting configurations. Part 1072952 specifically denotes the variant equipped with a short PUR cable and M8 connector, distinguishing it from stripped cable or longer lead versions within the same product family.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other MZT7 variants with identical housing dimensions and electrical characteristics but different cable lengths or connector types, such as part numbers ending in KUB or KQ0. Cross-series replacement requires verifying housing size compatibility and ensuring the new sensor meets the required IP rating and switching output logic.
