The SICK GTB6-N1212 is a compact photoelectric proximity sensor designed for precise object detection in industrial automation. Utilizing background suppression technology, it offers a sensing range from 35 mm to 140 mm, with a maximum range of 250 mm. The sensor employs a visible red PinPoint LED light source (650 nm wavelength) that produces a 6 mm light spot at 100 mm distance, ensuring accurate detection. It operates on a supply voltage of 10 V DC to 30 V DC and features an NPN digital output with light/dark switching capabilities. The device boasts a swift response time of less than 625 µs and a switching frequency of 1, 000 Hz. Encased in a durable ABS/PC plastic housing with dimensions of 12 mm x 31.5 mm x 21 mm, it has an IP67 enclosure rating, making it suitable for challenging environments. The sensor comes with a 2-meter, 3-wire cable for easy connectivity.
