Sensor fotoeléctrico Datalogic 956211460

Datalogic 956211460 is a photoelectric sensor that detects objects and changes in position using a light-based sensing principle. Part of the S62 line in the 50x50 Standard “One for All” housing, this industrial sensor provides a consistent mechanical footprint across a range of optical functions, simplifying installation and replacement. It is intended for integration with control systems and PLCs where non-contact, repeatable presence sensing is required in conveyor systems, packaging lines and automated machinery.

Advantages

The sensor offers improved performance through a standardized 50x50 housing that supports multiple optic functions while maintaining the same mounting and connectivity dimensions. Built for industrial use, it provides reliable detection over varying target types and operating conditions and reduces downtime thanks to simpler spare-part management and easier mechanical interchangeability. The design supports straightforward electrical integration into existing automation architectures.

Suitable for

• Object presence detection on conveyor belts
• Position sensing for packaging and labeling machines
• Counting and part verification in assembly lines
• Integration into PLC-based control circuits and machine safety subsystems

Key specifications

• Photoelectric sensing principle (light-based detection)
• Standardized 50 x 50 mm industrial housing for consistent mechanical mounting
• Available in multiple optic functions from basic to laser-class sensing
• Designed for non-contact, repeatable presence and position detection
• Compatibility with industrial control and PLC integration

How to use

Mount the sensor using the standard 50x50 mm footprint to align with existing brackets or panels and connect its output to the control input of the PLC or relay module. Adjust the sensor optics and alignment according to the target size and reflectivity; if the model includes adjustable sensitivity or beam characteristics, set these parameters to obtain stable detection without false positives. Verify detection range and switching behavior under actual operating conditions and secure the sensor to prevent mechanical displacement during machine operation.

Recommendations

Place the sensor where the optical path is free from obstructions and within the recommended detection range for the selected optic. Regularly inspect the sensing window for dust or residue and clean with a soft, lint-free cloth. When replacing sensors, choose units from the same mechanical series to avoid mounting or alignment changes.
