Sick GL6 Series Photoelectric Sensor, 100mA Maximum Current, IP67 - GL6-P1112F38


This photoelectric sensor is a retro-reflective Block sensor designed for industrial detection tasks using a red LED light source. It operates from a 10V to 30V DC supply and is intended for bracket-mounted installations in manufacturing and automation environments where detection of non-metallic materials is required.

Features & Benefits


• 625μs response time for high-speed object detection
• PNP output capable of sourcing up to 100mA practical load
• IP67 enclosure for protection in wet or dusty conditions
• Dual-lens polarisation for reliable detection of reflective surfaces
• 650nm Wavelength LED for accurate sensing of PMMA and plastics
• 1000Hz switching frequency for Rapid cycle applications

Applications


• Suitable for plastic part presence detection on conveyors
• Ideal for monitoring polymethyl methacrylate components
• used with reflectors in retro-reflective sensing setups
• Suitable for machinery requiring bracket-mounted proximity sensing

What cable and connection format does it use?


It comes with a 2m, 3-core PVC cable terminated for a three-pin connection, permitting straightforward wiring to control circuits.

How does the sensor cope with temperature variations during storage?


It tolerates storage temperatures from −40°C to +70°C, with operational adjustment stability of ±10°C after alignment.

What mechanical items are included for installation?


A stainless-steel mounting bracket is supplied together with a reflector to simplify alignment and secure bracket mounting.

How is circuit protection implemented?


The device includes reverse-polarity protection on supply and I/O and overcurrent/short-circuit protection on outputs to protect connected systems.
