Sick GL10-P4211 Photoelectric Sensor

Sick GL10-P4211 Photoelectric Sensor

The Sick GL10-P4211 Photoelectric Sensor is a compact and precise retro-reflective sensor designed to deliver reliable object detection in a wide variety of automation tasks. With a maximum sensing range of 15 meters and a dual-lens system, this sensor ensures superior performance, even in challenging environments.

Its visible red PinPoint LED light makes alignment quick and easy, while a 270° potentiometer allows for straightforward sensitivity adjustment. The PNP output combined with Light/Dark switching selection offers flexible integration across diverse machine setups. Fast reaction is guaranteed, thanks to a ≤500 µs response time and a 1,000 Hz switching frequency.

The GL10-P4211’s rugged ABS/PMMA housing and IP67 enclosure rating ensure high resistance against dust, moisture, and vibrations, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor industrial use. An integrated polarization filter enhances stability when working with reflective surfaces.

Operating reliably in temperatures from -30°C to +60°C, this sensor supports a broad range of applications. The M12 4-pin connection ensures quick, secure, and error-proof installation in demanding automated systems.

Applications :-

• Object Detection: Identify passing or stationary products in manufacturing lines.
• Conveyor Control: Trigger stops or actions as objects reach key positions.
• Reflective Surface Detection: Accurately detect shiny or transparent items.
• Safety Zone Monitoring: Signal machinery when objects breach a preset boundary.
• Packaging Verification: Confirm product presence during packing and sorting.

Precautions:

• Ensure Correct Wiring: Incorrect connections can cause sensor failure
• Avoid Overvoltage: Operating within 10-30V DC prevents damage
• Protect from Extreme Heat: Avoid installing near high-temperature sources
• Regular Cleaning: Keep the optical lens free from dust and debris for optimal performance
