SICK deTec4 Core Set 30/1800 deTec Safety Light Curtain

Description

deTec4 Core Set 30/1800 is a SICK deTec electro-sensitive protective device (part no. 1062919) that guards a hazardous opening with an invisible curtain of light instead of a fixed fence. The catalogue summary lists: product version: deTec4 Core; system part: Set; application: Normal industrial environment; safety level: PL e, SIL 3, Type 4; resolution: 30 mm.

How the deTec4 Core Set 30/1800 works and where it fits

Protection with a light curtain depends on geometry as much as on the device. The protective field height, the resolution and the response time together set the minimum safety distance from the curtain to the hazard, which is calculated to ISO 13855 / EN 999 by the machine builder.

Because the beams are invisible near-infrared, operators see nothing, so the housing carries LEDs that show state and alignment. Alignment of sender and receiver is the main commissioning job: both must be parallel, at the same height and free of reflective surfaces that could bridge a beam.

About brand

SICK is the German maker of industrial sensors: photoelectric and proximity sensors, safety laser scanners and light curtains, encoders, distance sensors, code readers and gas analysers. Erwin Sick, an optics engineer, founded it in Munich in 1946, and in 1952 it introduced its first marketable accident-prevention light curtain, which protected press operators by stopping the machine when a hand broke the light beam. The company moved to Waldkirch in the Black Forest in 1956 and is still headquartered there. It is a privately held company, and has been an Aktiengesellschaft (AG) since 1996.

Milestones

  • 1946: Erwin Sick receives a licence to run his engineering firm in Munich.
  • 1952: The first marketable accident-prevention light curtain is presented in Hanover and goes into series production.
  • 1956: The company moves to Waldkirch with 25 employees.
  • 1972 and 1976: Subsidiaries are founded in France and the United States.
  • 1996: SICK becomes an Aktiengesellschaft.
  • Today: Sensors for factory and logistics automation, machine safety and process analysis, with a large share of revenue outside Germany.

Choosing a SICK sensor

For object detection, the sensing principle comes first. A retro-reflective sensor (WL series) sends light to a reflector and switches when an object breaks the beam; it is reliable over long distances and easy to align. A sensor with background suppression (WTB series) detects an object at a set distance and ignores what is behind it, which suits conveyors with shiny or dark backgrounds. A through-beam pair (WS/WE) gives the longest range and the highest reliability in dust. For transparent bottles and film, use a model built for transparent objects (for example WL12G-3B or WL150-P420). The digits in the code also matter: "P" usually means a PNP output and "N" NPN, and the last digits set the connector or cable. For machine guarding, a safety laser scanner such as nanoScan3 or microScan3 protects an area, while a safety controller such as Flexi Soft combines several safety devices.

Where SICK products are used

In Oman and the GCC, SICK sensors are used in packaging and bottling lines, food and beverage plants, logistics and airport baggage handling, cement and steel plants, ports and cranes, automated warehouses, and on machines built by European OEMs. SICK safety scanners guard robots and automated guided vehicles, and its encoders give position feedback on motors, hoists and conveyors.

Ordering SICK products: what we need

Send the type code and the 7-digit SICK part number from the label (for example WTB12-3P2431 together with its part number). For a replacement sensor, add the output (PNP or NPN), connection (M8, M12 or cable) and sensing distance. For encoders, add the interface (incremental, SSI, PROFIBUS, PROFINET), resolution and shaft type. For safety scanners, tell us the model and whether the existing configuration needs to be kept.
