Ten second sensor change
23 April 2014
A super-quick new mounting design for the compact and tough SICK G10 sensor enables engineers to install new or replacement optical sensors wherever they are needed in just 10 seconds.

The sensor’s rugged protective plastic housing is designed to take hard knocks in heavy duty jobs inside or outside and it is easy to integrate into most industrial, logistics or materials handling applications and will be especially attractive where many of the same sensors are used together.
The new SICK G10 is a complete photoelectric sensor product family, including proximity sensors, retro-reflective sensors and through-beam sensors. Available in both DC (10-30V) and AC (24-240V), and a large range of cables, reflectors and mounting accessories, the SICK G10 is ideal for a wide range of applications.
