4023113

Overview

The SICK model 4023113 is a retro-reflective photoelectric sensor designed for industrial automation. It features a rectangular housing with dimensions of 12 mm x 40 mm x 65 mm and an M12 connector interface. The device utilizes a red LED light source with a wavelength of 660 nm. It provides a switching output configured as NPN, normally open (NO). The unit operates on a DC supply voltage ranging from 10 V to 30 V. It achieves a maximum switching distance of 6 meters when used with the specified WL12-2P420 retro-reflective sheet. The sensor offers a response time of 2 ms and includes protection against reverse polarity and short circuits.

Feature Summary

• Compact rectangular design suitable for space-constrained installations
• Integrated optical synchronization capability to prevent interference in multi-sensor setups
• Robust construction ensuring reliable performance in standard industrial environments

Applications

• Object detection on conveyor systems
• Position monitoring in packaging machinery
• Level detection in bulk material handling

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific order quantity matches the required deployment scale. Confirm compatibility with existing control system logic levels. Ensure the procurement documentation explicitly lists the correct part number to avoid substitution errors. Check for any regional regulatory compliance requirements relevant to the installation site.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a compact form factor is required alongside a long detection range. It is appropriate for applications utilizing retro-reflective sheets rather than reflectors. Consider the NPN output type relative to the PLC input configuration. Evaluate the need for optical synchronization if multiple units are installed in close proximity.
