The SICK GTB10-R3811 is a compact photoelectric proximity sensor from the G10 series. It uses the principle of background suppression to ensure reliable object detection without being influenced by reflective backgrounds. Equipped with an infrared LED light source and a PNP switching output, the sensor offers stable performance in a wide range of industrial automation tasks. With a rugged IP67 housing, fast response time, and high detection accuracy, it is well-suited for machine integration and material handling applications.
