SICK Dx50 Series Distance Sensor, IP65, Laser Light Source - DT50-P1123


This distance sensor is a Compact background suppression device designed for industrial sensing tasks using a laser light source. It provides digital detection suitable for panel-mounted installations and operates across a wide ambient temperature range to accommodate typical factory and machinery environments.

Features & Benefits


• Metal housing offers mechanical robustness for industrial sites
• IP65 rating enables protection against dust and water jets
• Digital Interface supports integration with automation controllers
• PNP output allows straightforward sourcing logic connections
• Response time of 20 to 30 MS gives quick proximity detection
• Terminal via 5-pin M12 simplifies cabling and connectivity

**Applications**


• Suitable for conveyor object detection where background must be ignored
• Ideal for pick-and-place machines requiring fast proximity feedback
• Used for level monitoring in bins with reflective back surfaces
• Can be used for panel-mounted machine guards and interlocks
• Used with PLC systems needing Compact sensor inputs

What electrical limits must be observed during installation?


The unit must not exceed 30V DC supply and draws up to 100 mA during operation.

What environmental temperatures can the sensor tolerate in service?


It is specified for reliable operation from −30 °C up to 65 °C in normal industrial settings.

Which output configuration does it use for machine logic?


The sensor provides a PNP switching output compatible with sourcing input schemes.

How is the unit connected to plant cabling infrastructure?


Connection is MADE via a 5-pin M12 Terminal to Interface with standard industrial cabling.

What approvals support use in regulated installations?


It carries EAC, cULus and CE approvals for conformity to regional standards.
