The RAY26P-1H162330A00 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 4.5 m sensing range, uses a 55 mm detection height, supports 3 mm, 5 mm, or 10 mm minimum object sizes, and provides a push-pull PNP/NPN output. The model belongs to the SICK photoelectric sensor range and uses autocollimation, coaxial optics, visible 635 nm red light, IO-Link, and BluePilot teach-in functionality.
The RAY26P-1H162330A00 Sick Reflex Array Photoelectric Sensor can be used on conveyors, packaging machines, automated production lines, and assembly systems. Its 55 mm light array supports detection of small, flat, transparent, uneven, and perforated objects at different positions within the detection zone. The push-pull output supports PNP or NPN operation, while IO-Link enables configuration and diagnostics. BluePilot provides teach-in functionality for setting up the sensor in industrial automation applications.
SICK RAY26P-1H162330A00, Part No. 1221945, combines Reflex Array sensing, autocollimation optics, visible red illumination, push-pull switching, and an M12 4-pin connection. Its VISTAL plastic housing carries IP66 and IP67 enclosure ratings for resistance to dust and water ingress. As part of the SICK photoelectric sensor range, this model is suitable for conveyor, packaging, assembly, and automation applications that require detection of small or irregular objects across a defined light array.
