The photoelectric sensors in the G6 product family with their miniature housings will impress you across the board with both their standard mounting configuration of 1-inch spaced holes and also their functional characteristics.

The variants with a stainless steel 1.4404 (316L) housing are especially resistant to chemicals and cleaning agents in washdown applications. With PinPoint LED and laser technology, metal inserts for mounting, large and bright indicator LEDs, User friendly adjustment screws, IP67 and IP69K enclosure ratings, as well as the very latest ASIC technology from SICK, the G6 series far exceeds the current standard.

PinPoint LED and class 1 laser variants
SICK ASIC, the result of decades of experience with photoelectric sensors
Photoelectric proximity sensors with background suppression, energetic photoelectric proximity sensors, and through-beam photoelectric sensors
ABS plastic housing and V4A stainless-steel 1.4404 (316L) housing
Enclosure ratings IP67 and IP69K

PinPoint LEDs (with visible red light and infrared light) or variants with a laser light spot enable objects to be detected reliably and are therefore suitable for a broad range of applications
Superior optical performance and robustness thanks to the ASIC from SICK
Quick and easy mounting and high durability thanks to the metal inserts with M3 thread
Easy installation and adjustment with user friendly potentiometer and highly visible indicator LEDs
Variants with a stainless steel housing and IP69K enclosure rating ensure a long sensor service life in demanding wash down applications
