Product Description

The SICK CS81-P1112 (1028224) is a high-performance color sensor from the CS8 series designed for precise single-color detection in demanding industrial environments. Utilizing a sophisticated RGB LED light source with wavelengths of 640 nm, 525 nm, and 470 nm, the sensor can identify even the most subtle color nuances. It features a compact rectangular zinc diecast housing that is IP67 rated, ensuring durability against moisture and dust.

The device is engineered for speed and flexibility, offering an adjustable switching frequency of 1 kHz, 3 kHz, or 6 kHz, with a minimum response time of just 85 µs. Setup is simplified through a static 1-point teach-in button, while the integrated bar graph display provides immediate visual feedback on color quality and detection certainty. With its 12.5mm sensing distance and vertical light spot, the CS81-P1112 provides stable and repeatable results, making it an essential component for high-speed quality control and sorting processes.

Key Performance Features

High-Speed Processing: Adjustable switching frequencies (1 kHz/3 kHz/6 kHz) allow for rapid detection in fast-moving production lines.
Precision RGB Technology: Triple-color LED illumination enables high-resolution color differentiation that outperforms standard contrast sensors.
Intuitive Configuration: Static 1-point teach-in via a pushbutton or external cable ensures quick commissioning and easy adjustments.
Robust Construction: IP67-rated metal housing provides resistance to vibration (IEC 60068) and harsh industrial conditions.
Visual Monitoring: Features a green bar graph display for real-time monitoring of color correspondence and signal strength.
Flexible Integration: Features a 90° rotatable M12 connector and a deactivation delay (20 ms) that can be shifted as needed.

Ideal Applications

Packaging Industry: Detection of color-coded marks on packaging film or labels to trigger cutting or positioning.
Quality Control: Sorting parts based on color or verifying the presence of specific color components in assembly.
Automotive Production: Identifying colored markings on components or distinguishing between painted parts.
Printing & Paper: High-speed detection of print marks and color registration control.
Logistics & Sorting: Automating the routing of bins or products based on color identification.
