Product Description

The SICK LUTM-UP81162P (1067295) is a high-performance luminescence sensor designed into a space-saving miniature housing. It operates by emitting modulated ultraviolet (UV) light at 370 nm to excite fluorescent substances, which then emit longer-wavelength light in the visible spectrum (450 nm to 750 nm). This sensor is specifically engineered to detect fluorescent marks with high precision, even when the level of luminescence is extremely low or the marks are located in confined industrial spaces.

With a rapid switching frequency of 6 kHz and a response time of 80 µs, the LUTM ensures high machine productivity and reliable detection on fast-moving production lines. The device is highly user-friendly, featuring a 2-point static and dynamic teach-in method via a single button for quick commissioning. Its robust plastic ABS housing carries an IP67 enclosure rating, making it suitable for harsh environments. Additionally, it offers enhanced process reliability through improved gloss suppression, ensuring that reflective backgrounds do not interfere with mark detection.

Key Performance Features

• High Switching Frequency: 6 kHz for high-speed application processing.
• Enhanced Sensitivity: Reliable detection of marks with low luminescence.
• Simple Setup: 2-point teach-in (static and dynamic) via a manual teach-in button.
• Compact Integration: Miniature housing allows for installation in very tight spaces.
• Robust Design: IP67 enclosure rating and an operating temperature range of –10 °C to +55 °C.
• Signal Precision: Jitter of 40 µs and a response time of 80 µs for consistent accuracy.

Ideal Applications

• Packaging Industry: Detecting invisible marks for the positioning and presence monitoring of labels.
• Pharmaceutical Industry: Monitoring the presence of package inserts and labels on medicine containers.
• Wood Industry: Identifying knot holes and wood defects marked with fluorescent chalk.
• Food & Beverage: Detecting visible and invisible security marks on luxury food packaging.
• Document Processing: Sorting and verifying documents with luminescent security features.
