Product Description

The SICK CSM-WN11122P (Part No. 1067293) is a high-performance miniature color sensor designed for applications where installation space is extremely limited but precision is paramount. Utilizing advanced RGB LED technology, the sensor emits three primary light colors—red, green, and blue—to accurately calculate the chromaticity coordinates of a target object. It compares these reflected values against a stored reference taught via a simple, user-friendly 1-point static teach-in button. If the detected color falls within the user-defined tolerance band, the NPN switching output is activated.

Housed in a rugged ABS plastic casing with an IP67 rating, the CSM series is built to withstand demanding industrial environments. Despite its small dimensions (12 mm x 31.5 mm x 21 mm), it delivers a rapid response time of 300 µs and a high switching frequency of 1.7 kHz, making it suitable for high-speed manufacturing lines. Its vertical light spot and precise sensing distance of 12.5 mm allow for the reliable detection of small marks or color variations on moving objects. This sensor offers a cost-effective, “mini, easy, and smart” solution for standard color detection tasks that require both speed and repeatability.
