The RAY26P-24162330A00 Sick Reflex Array Photoelectric Sensor is a SICK retro-reflective sensor for position-independent object detection in industrial automation. It provides up to 4.5 m sensing, detects objects as small as 3 mm, uses a 55 mm uniform light array, and provides a push-pull PNP/NPN output. The RAY26P-24162330A00 belongs to the SICK RAY26 Reflex Array series and supports IO-Link communication, Light-ON and Dark-ON operation, and a 4-pin M12 connection.
The RAY26P-24162330A00 Sick Reflex Array Photoelectric Sensor can be used on conveyors, packaging machines, automated production lines, and assembly systems. Its uniform light array supports position-independent detection of small, flat, uneven, or transparent objects such as polybags, glass bottles, and perforated materials. Push-pull switching supports both PNP and NPN operation, while IO-Link enables sensor configuration, including conveyor belt suppression, for industrial automation applications.
SICK RAY26P-24162330A00, Part No. 1221060, combines Reflex Array sensing, position-independent object detection, IO-Link communication, and a 4-pin M12 male connection. The sensor operates from 10 V DC to 30 V DC and carries an IP67 enclosure rating for dust and water protection. As part of the SICK RAY26 Reflex Array range, it is suitable for conveyor, packaging, assembly, and automation applications requiring detection across a defined 55 mm light array.
