NEW ARRIVAL: SICK GRTE18-P2462 Photoelectric Sensor Now in Stock
Model Description
We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of the SICK GRTE18-P2462 cylindrical photoelectric sensor, a versatile detection solution for Industrial Automation applications. This M18 threaded sensor employs energy-diffuse reflection principle with a detection range spanning 10mm to 800mm, making it suitable for position sensing, presence detection, and object counting tasks. The unit features a rugged metal housing constructed from nickel-plated brass with ABS components, ensuring durability in mechanically demanding environments. Integrated PNP switching output provides complementary light/dark switching functionality for flexible control logic integration. The sensor's PinPoint LED technology generates a highly visible 650nm red light spot, enabling precise alignment and reliable detection even at maximum range. A 270° potentiometer allows field adjustment of sensing distance, while the bright multi-color status LED provides clear operational feedback. The device terminates with a standard M12, 4-pin male connector for quick installation and replacement.
Key Features
The GRTE18-P2462 delivers exceptional optical and electronic performance across challenging industrial conditions. Operating from 10VDC to 30VDC supply voltage with <5Vpp ripple, the sensor consumes only 30mA active current for energy-efficient operation. Switching frequency reaches 500Hz with response times below 1000µs, supporting high-speed production line applications. The PinPoint LED produces a 45mm diameter light spot at 800mm distance, optimized for consistent detection of varied target reflectivities. Electronic protection includes short-circuit protection, reverse polarity protection, and overload protection, preventing damage during installation errors. IP67 ingress protection rating ensures reliable operation in dusty, humid, or washdown environments. The sensor withstands operational temperatures from -25°C to +55°C and storage extremes from -40°C to +70°C. Compliance with EN 60947-5-2, UL File E348498, and CE certifications validates global deployment. Mechanical robustness includes high tightening torque capability for fully-flush mounting in conveyor frames and machine structures.
