Product Description

The SICK DT20-P214B (1040012) is a high-performance displacement measurement sensor designed for precision and reliability in demanding industrial environments. Utilizing advanced laser triangulation technology, this sensor provides accurate distance measurements across a versatile range of 100 mm to 600 mm. Its Class 2 red laser light ensures easy alignment and high visibility, while the integrated dot-matrix backlit LCD display allows for intuitive on-site configuration and real-time monitoring of measurement values.

Constructed with a robust zinc die-cast metal housing and a PMMA lens, the DT20-P214B is rated at IP65, making it highly resistant to dust and moisture. The sensor features a multifunctional input for external teach-in or laser-off functions, providing exceptional application flexibility. It delivers a combination of a 4–20 mA analog output for continuous process control and a PNP digital output for threshold detection. With a fast response time of ≥ 2.5 ms and a high measuring frequency of 400 Hz, this sensor is engineered to maintain consistent performance even on complex surfaces, regardless of color or gloss. It represents a premium solution for quality control and precision positioning tasks in automated production lines.

Key Performance Features

High Precision: Offers a repeatability of ≥ 0.5 mm and a linearity of ± 2 mm for consistent quality control.
Advanced Control: Features a 12-bit analog output resolution and an invertible switching output for flexible logic integration.
User-Friendly Interface: Equipped with a dot-matrix display and push-buttons for rapid commissioning and numerical teach-in.
Multifunctional Input: Includes an MF input that can be configured for laser-off, external teach-in, or deactivation.
Rugged Design: Durable metal housing with a swivel M12 connector facilitates easy installation in tight or harsh industrial spaces.
Adjustable Averaging: Users can set the moving average to “fast,” “medium,” or “slow” to balance speed versus precision.

Ideal Applications

Electronic & Solar Industry: Precise positioning of components and height measurement of wafers or circuit boards.
Machine Building: Monitoring of material thickness and coil diameters in unwinding processes.
Robotics: Accurate distance-to-object (DtO) sensing for robotic arm positioning and pick-and-place tasks.
Automotive Quality Control: Checking for correct component assembly and tolerances on production lines.
Pharmaceutical Packaging: High-speed level monitoring and presence detection of small containers or vials.
