Overview
The Sick ZT1-N0700S02 photoelectric proximity sensor is a miniature detection device engineered for reliable object sensing in standard industrial applications. This sensor is part of the Sick ZT1 Series with basic functions packed into different housings, which can be optimized for customer demands. The sensor features a compact M18 form factor with transparent housing for 360° status indication, making it easy to monitor operating status on production lines.
Key Features
- Miniature, compact M18 photoelectric sensor design for space-constrained installations
- Transparent housing with integrated LED indicator for 360° status visibility
- Straight cable outlet connection for easy integration into control systems
- Standard applications in short-range detection for conveyor systems, vending machines, and automated systems
- Energetic or background suppression variants available for flexible deployment
- Low-cost architecture suitable for high-volume production environments
Technical Specifications
The ZT1-N0700S02 offers robust performance parameters for industrial proximity sensing. Typical voltage supplies range from 10–30 VDC with standard nominal operation at 12 or 24 VDC. The sensor employs infrared (IR) LED technology for reliable detection, and switching frequencies support fast response times. M18×1 hybrid housing enables straightforward mounting on standard machine frames.
Typical Applications
- Conveyor line object detection and position sensing
- Packaging machine fill levels and part counting
