Description
SICK KTS-WS91141142ZZZZ Contrast Sensor
Product Description
The SICK KTS-WS91141142ZZZZ is a high-performance contrast sensor designed for reliable detection of printed marks, colour differences and contrast variations in industrial automation applications. It uses an RGB LED light source to distinguish contrast differences between a registration mark and its background, making it suitable for packaging, printing, labelling and automated production lines.
With a sensing distance of up to 13 mm, this sensor provides fast and accurate detection of marks on moving materials. Its advanced teach-in functions allow users to configure the sensor according to different detection requirements. The compact rectangular housing supports easy installation in industrial machinery, while its fast response helps maintain reliable operation at high production speeds.
The sensor offers PNP and NPN switching outputs for flexible integration with control systems and PLCs. Its IP67 enclosure rating provides protection against dust and temporary water immersion under specified conditions. The robust VISTAL® housing and M12 four-pin connector support dependable operation in demanding industrial environments.
