Product Description

The SICK CS84-N1112 (1028230) is a premium high-performance color sensor belonging to the renowned CS8 series, engineered for demanding industrial automation tasks. This sensor utilizes a sophisticated RGB LED light source, emitting red, green, and blue wavelengths to accurately identify and differentiate up to four distinct colors simultaneously. With a precise sensing distance of 12.5 mm and a vertical light spot of 2 mm x 4 mm, it ensures exceptional reliability even on small or fast-moving targets.

Housed in a rugged zinc die-cast casing with an IP67 rating, the CS84-N1112 is built to withstand harsh manufacturing environments. It features a user-friendly static 1-point teach-in process via an onboard pushbutton and a clear bar graph display for real-time monitoring of color quality and detection thresholds. The device offers high-speed performance with an adjustable switching frequency of up to 3.5 kHz and a response time as fast as 145 µs. This combination of speed, precision, and multi-color capability makes it an essential tool for advanced quality control and sorting processes where color consistency is critical.

Key Performance Features

Multi-Color Detection: Capable of teaching and detecting up to 4 different colors with individual NPN outputs.
High Resolution: Excellent color resolution and sensitivity, allowing for the differentiation of even the slightest color nuances.
Fast Response Times: Highly versatile with adjustable response times (1,000 µs, 500 µs, or 145 µs) to match line speeds.
Bar Graph Display: Integrated LED bar graph provides immediate visual feedback on color correspondence and quality.
Flexible Setup: Features a rotatable M12 connector and 1-point teach-in for rapid commissioning and mechanical integration.
Industrial Durability: Robust metal housing and high EMI resistance ensure stable operation in high-interference areas.

Ideal Applications

Packaging Industry: Verification of correct color labels or packaging components on high-speed filling lines.
Automotive Sector: Detection of color-coded parts or orientation marks during vehicle assembly.
Quality Control: Checking for the presence of specific color markers or identifying color-coded wires and components.
Sorting Processes: Automated sorting of products (e.g., caps, bricks, or electronics) based on their specific color profile.
Printing Industry: Identifying registration marks or monitoring color consistency across printed webs.
