The RAY26P-24162930A00 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, detects objects as small as 10 mm, uses a 55 mm continuous detection array, and provides a push-pull PNP/NPN output. The RAY26P-24162930A00 belongs to the SICK RAY26 Reflex Array product family and also supports IO-Link communication for configuration and diagnostics.
The RAY26P-24162930A00 Sick Reflex Array Photoelectric Sensor can be used on conveyors, packaging machines, automated production lines, and assembly systems. Its 55 mm continuous light array supports position-independent detection of uneven, flat, transparent, or perforated objects moving through the sensing area. Push-pull switching supports both PNP and NPN operation, while IO-Link enables sensor configuration and diagnostics. A response time of ≤ 3 ms and switching frequency of 170 Hz support automated object-detection tasks.
SICK RAY26P-24162930A00, Part No. 1221949, combines Reflex Array sensing, position-independent object detection, push-pull switching, IO-Link communication, and a 4-pin M12 male connection. The sensor operates from 10 V DC to 30 V DC and uses an IP66-rated VISTAL plastic housing for protection in industrial environments. As part of the SICK RAY26 Reflex Array family, this model is suited to conveyor, packaging, assembly, and automation applications requiring detection across a continuous 55 mm light array.
