1085009

Overview

The SICK part number 1085009 corresponds to the MZT7-03VPS-KRD, a photoelectric proximity sensor featuring background suppression technology. It operates with a PNP switching output and NO function, designed for reliable object detection in industrial environments. The device utilizes an infrared light source with a sensing range up to 10 mm. It is housed in a compact rectangular enclosure rated IP65 and IP67, ensuring protection against dust and water ingress. The unit includes a 0.3-meter PUR cable terminated with an M8 connector, facilitating straightforward integration into automated machinery and control systems requiring precise short-range detection.

Feature Summary

• Background suppression functionality ensures consistent detection regardless of target surface reflectivity variations.
• Compact housing design allows for installation in space-constrained applications.
• Robust environmental sealing provides resistance to dust and temporary water immersion.

Applications

• Automated assembly line component presence verification
• Packaging machine object positioning and alignment
• Conveyor system item detection in harsh industrial settings

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific variant matches the required switching output type and cable length for your system architecture. Confirm that the M8 connector pinout aligns with your existing wiring infrastructure. Ensure the operating voltage range of the power supply matches the sensor's electrical specifications. Check environmental ratings against the installation site conditions to guarantee long-term reliability and compliance with safety standards.

Selection Notes

Select this model when precise short-range detection is required without sensitivity to object color or material properties. Consider the background suppression feature if targets vary significantly in reflectivity. Evaluate the mechanical dimensions and mounting options to ensure compatibility with existing fixtures. Assess the cable length and connector type to minimize additional cabling requirements during installation.

Part Context

This component belongs to the MZT7 series of photoelectric sensors from SICK. The series is engineered for general-purpose industrial automation tasks. Models within this family share common housing designs and optical principles but differ in sensing ranges, output types, and cable configurations. This specific part number denotes a particular configuration optimized for close-proximity detection applications.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other MZT7 variants with adjusted cable lengths or connector types. Cross-reference part numbers such as 1070829 or 1070833 for similar functionalities with different cable specifications. Verify that any replacement maintains the same background suppression capability and electrical interface requirements.
