The RAY26P-1H162530A00 Sick Reflex Array Photoelectric Sensor is a SICK retro-reflective sensor designed for position-independent object detection in industrial automation. It provides a 0 m to 3 m sensing range, detects objects as small as 5 mm, uses a 55 mm monitoring height, and provides a push-pull switching output. The RAY26P-1H162530A00 belongs to the SICK photoelectric sensor series and also features autocollimation, coaxial optics, a visible red PinPoint LED, and IO-Link communication.
The RAY26P-1H162530A00 Sick Reflex Array Photoelectric Sensor can be used on conveyors, packaging machinery, automated production lines, and assembly systems. Its Reflex Array principle supports detection of small, flat, transparent, uneven, and perforated objects regardless of their position within the light array. The push-pull output automatically operates as PNP or NPN according to the connected load, while IO-Link supports configuration, diagnostics, and smart automation tasks.
SICK RAY26P-1H162530A00, Part No. 1221948, combines Reflex Array sensing, visible red PinPoint LED illumination, IO-Link communication, and a 4-wire 2-metre cable connection. Its IP67 enclosure provides resistance to dust and water ingress, while the 10 V DC to 30 V DC supply supports industrial control integration. Manufactured by SICK, this photoelectric sensor is suited to conveyor, packaging, assembly, and automation applications requiring position-independent detection across a defined monitoring area.
