The Sick 1026131, also known as the MHL15-N3238, is a cylindrical photoelectric sensor designed for reliable and efficient object detection. This sensor operates on a photoelectric retro-reflective principle, utilising visible red LED light to detect objects within a sensing range of 0.035 m to 4.5 m. With a compact design measuring 18 mm x 18 mm x 50.3 mm, it is suitable for various industrial applications where space is limited. The sensor features a robust plastic housing with an IP67 and IP69K enclosure rating, ensuring durability in challenging environments. It offers a switching frequency of 400 Hz and a response time of ≤ 1.25 ms, making it ideal for high-speed operations. The MHL15-N3238 is equipped with an NPN switching output and a dark switching mode, providing flexibility in integration. Its M12, 3-pin connector ensures easy installation and maintenance. With a polarisation filter and a protection class of III, this sensor is designed to deliver precise and reliable performance in diverse industrial settings.
