Product Description

The SICK LUTM-UP817A1P (1087463) is a high-performance luminescence sensor designed to identify fluorescent marks on various backgrounds with exceptional reliability. Housed in a compact, space-saving miniature enclosure, this sensor is engineered for industrial environments where mounting space is at a premium but high-speed accuracy is required. Utilizing a powerful UV LED light source with a 370 nm wavelength, the LUTM effectively excites fluorescent substances, detecting them within a 12.5 mm sensing range.

What sets the 1087463 apart is its integration of IO-Link technology, which allows for simplified parameterization, enhanced diagnostics, and seamless integration into Industry 4.0 automation networks. The sensor features a user-friendly teach-in method (2-point static/dynamic) that can be performed via the cable or IO-Link, ensuring rapid setup. With a high switching frequency of 6 kHz and a response time of just 80 µs, the LUTM-UP817A1P is ideal for fast-moving production lines. Its rugged IP67-rated plastic housing ensures durability against dust and water, making it a dependable choice for demanding packaging and processing applications.

Key Performance Features

• High-Speed Processing: 6 kHz switching frequency and 80 µs response time for rapid detection.
• Compact Housing: Miniature dimensions (12 mm x 31.5 mm x 21 mm) for flexible installation in tight spaces.
• IO-Link Integration: Enables remote configuration and real-time monitoring of sensor performance.
• Precise Light Spot: 2 mm x 2.5 mm UV light spot ensures accurate detection of small marks.
