1103512

Overview

The SICK part number 1103512 corresponds to the GTB6-P4212, a background-suppression photoelectric sensor. It utilizes a visible red PinPoint LED light source with a wavelength of 650 nm. The device features a sensing range of 35 mm to 140 mm and a maximum detection range of 5 mm to 250 mm against objects with 90% diffuse reflectivity. The light spot size is Ø 6 mm at a distance of 100 mm. It includes mechanical adjustment via a five-turn potentiometer and is supplied with an stainless steel mounting bracket (BEF-W100-A).

Feature Summary

• Background suppression functionality for precise object detection.
• Visible red PinPoint LED emission for accurate alignment.
• Mechanical adjustment using a five-turn potentiometer.

Applications

• Automated material handling systems requiring precise positioning.
• Packaging machinery for detecting specific product features.
• Assembly lines utilizing retro-reflective or diffuse sensing modes.

Procurement Notes

Verify that the order specifies the complete package including the BEF-W100-A mounting bracket. Confirm interface requirements if cabling accessories are needed separately. Ensure environmental conditions match the sensor's operational specifications. Cross-reference the full part number to avoid confusion with similar GTB series variants.

Selection Notes

Select this model when background suppression is required to ignore reflective backgrounds. The visible red light aids in visual targeting during installation. Consider the 35 mm to 140 mm sensing range for applications needing consistent detection of small targets. Verify compatibility with existing mounting hardware and control system interfaces.
