1093491

Overview

The SICK model 1093491 is a photoelectric retro-reflective sensor designed for precise object detection in industrial environments. It utilizes a Reflex Array dual lens system to achieve reliable performance with minimum distances to the reflector. The device emits visible red light and features a rectangular housing design. It supports potentiometer adjustment for configuration. The sensor is engineered to detect transparent, perforated, uneven, shiny, and flat objects effectively. It operates within a sensing range of up to 1.5 meters when paired with the specified P250F reflector. The unit weighs 38 grams and originates from the United States.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes Reflex Array dual lens technology for stable detection at minimum distances to the reflector
• Capable of detecting challenging surfaces including transparent, perforated, and shiny objects
• Features a compact rectangular housing suitable for space-constrained installations

Applications

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

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number 1093491 against official SICK documentation to ensure compatibility with required reflectors, such as the P250F. Confirm that the visible red light source and potentiometer adjustment meet the application's environmental and operational requirements. Check for any regional certification updates or document revisions prior to procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when applications require reliable detection of difficult materials like transparent or shiny surfaces. The Reflex Array technology ensures consistent performance even with position tolerances. Ensure the installation allows for the specified minimum distance to the reflector. Verify that the 1.5-meter maximum range aligns with the physical layout of the monitoring area.

Part Context

This component belongs to SICK's portfolio of photoelectric sensors, specifically the retro-reflective category. It is designed for general industrial automation tasks where standard through-beam sensors may be impractical due to space or alignment constraints. The product line emphasizes robustness and adaptability to various object types.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official SICK substitution guides for direct replacements. Ensure any substitute maintains the Reflex Array functionality and compatible reflector interface.
