SICK GR18 PHOTOELECTRIC SENSORS

SICK GRL18-P2432 – Product Description

SICK GRL18-P2432 (Part No. 1066557) is a robust GR18 photoelectric retro-reflective sensor designed for reliable object detection in industrial automation applications. It uses a visible red PinPoint LED with a wavelength of 650 nm and works with a suitable reflector such as the PL80A. The sensor provides a sensing range of 0.06 m to 6 m, with a maximum sensing range of 0.03 m to 7.2 m under the specified conditions.

Its compact M18 × 1 cylindrical housing, axial optical axis and potentiometer adjustment make installation and alignment convenient. The integrated green operating LED and yellow received-light status LED provide clear visual indication during operation. The dual-lens system allows operation with a minimum distance to the reflector, making the sensor suitable for space-conscious industrial installations.
