Product Model
GRL18-N2432
Selling Points
- 1The GRL18-N2432 photoelectric sensor from SICK ensures absolute flawlessness in operation, unaffected by ambient light, dirt, moisture, or electrical interference.
- 2With seven different housing types, this sensor is ideally suited for both space-saving and flexible mounting solutions, making it versatile for various applications.
- 3The sensing range can be quickly and easily adjusted using a standard Phillips-head screwdriver, requiring no special tools.
- 4Equipped with a very bright LED status indicator, the current operational status is easily recognizable from any direction, significantly reducing commissioning and maintenance times.
- 5Utilizing PinPoint technology with a highly visible light spot, this sensor facilitates commissioning and increases the sensing range within the red emitted light area without protective measures against lasers.
