The RAY26P-34162330A00 Sick Reflex Array Photoelectric Sensor is a SICK retro-reflective sensor for position-independent object detection in industrial automation. It provides an up to 4.5 m sensing range, supports object sizes of 3 mm, 5 mm, or 10 mm, uses a 55 mm detection height, and provides a push-pull PNP/NPN output. The RAY26P-34162330A00 belongs to the SICK RAY26 Reflex Array series and uses autocollimation optics with IO-Link communication.
The RAY26P-34162330A00 Sick Reflex Array Photoelectric Sensor can be used on conveyors, packaging machines, automated production lines, and assembly systems. Its 55 mm Reflex Array supports detection of small, flat, uneven, or transparent objects regardless of their position within the sensing area. Push-pull switching supports NPN and PNP operation, while IO-Link and BluePilot provide communication and teach-in adjustment for industrial automation applications.
SICK RAY26P-34162330A00, Part No. 1221943, combines Reflex Array sensing, autocollimation, configurable object detection, push-pull switching, and IO-Link communication. The sensor operates from 10 V DC to 30 V DC and connects through a 270 mm cable with a 4-pin M12 male connector. Its IP67 enclosure rating supports industrial use. As part of the SICK RAY26 Reflex Array family, this model is suited to conveyor, packaging, assembly, and automation object-detection applications.
