Sick Colour/Contrast Sensor 12.5 mm, , PNP, 100 mA, 12 → 24 V dc, IP67 / 2131729

OverviewAt a glanceColor sensor in a new miniature housing Static and teach-in method for 1 color using control cable or control panel Over IO-Link up to 8 colors teachable Switching frequency: 1.7 kHz Sensing distance: 12.5 mm Compatibility with older color sensors thanks to cable with male connector M12Your BenefitFast, seamless integration into existing applications thanks to a new miniature housing, saving time and money Increased switching frequency for improved machine productivity Flexible application possibilities thanks to a wide range of color tolerances Enhanced, intelligent diagnostics and visualization, as well as quick and easy format changes, thanks to IOLink function Quick and easy installation cuts down on installation time Sorting processes are simplified by the distinction of up to 8 colors in one jobThe new CSM color sensor from SICK offers improved gloss behavior combined with an IO-Link function and a miniature housing. The CSM is ideal for applications where color characteristics need to be detected reliably and installation space is at a premium. The sensor detects and monitors objects on the basis of their color. The small CSM color sensor can be set using a simple teach-in method, while the new IO-Link function enables intelligent diagnostics, visualization of sensor parameters, and straightforward format changes. Thanks to a switching frequency of up to 1.7 kHz, the CSM is also suitable for use with high-speed machines and manufacturing processes.ApplicationsDetecting, sorting, and checking colored objects and products with short sensing distances in the production or manufacturing processes (mechanical engineering and automotive industry) Presence checking and identification of labels and boxes, even in confined spaces Synchronization of working processes in the packaging industry, in bottling plants, and in sealing machines on the basis of color printing Detecting end of film reliably Color monitoring of bottle caps Detecting the housing color Spliceband detectionNoteProduct details cover the whole product family.
