The switching automation light grids have an operating range of 3 meters and a beam separation of 10 millimetres. They detect objects at a height of 150 millimetres with a response time of 14 milliseconds. These light grids are equipped with a male connector type M12 with 4 pins for easy connection. SICK presents the ELG, a highly adaptable switching automation light grid renowned for its robustness, offering various monitoring heights and beam separations. Resilient to glare from sunlight and flashing light, the ELG excels in diverse environments. It finds common use in logistics, adept at identifying pallet projections and tallying boxes and small components.

Moreover, the ELG serves effectively in tollbooths for vehicle segregation purposes. With configurations featuring up to 128 beams and a minimum beam resolution of 10 mm, it ensures precise and comprehensive detection capabilities, making it an indispensable solution for a range of applications.
