- Precise background‚Äësuppressed proximity detection: Detects targets within approximately 5 mm up to 300 mm using PinPoint red LED light (631 nm), ensuring accurate detection even on complex and uneven surfaces.
- Dual NPN outputs with adjustable timing: Offers both light‑switching and dark‑switching NPN outputs, plus dual potentiometers—for sensing‑range tuning and setting an on‑delay up to 2 s—for adaptable control logic.
- Compact, rugged IP‚Äërated hybrid housing: Housed in a compact M18-style hybrid plastic body (16.2 mm x 45.5 mm x 31.8 mm) with IP67 (and possibly IP69K) protection, built to withstand harsh industrial environments.
- Fast response for high‑speed operation: Responds in ≤ 0.5 ms and supports a switching frequency up to 1,000 Hz, making it ideal for dynamic automation systems.
The SICK HTB18‑N4C2BF (Part No. 1086145) is a hybrid photoelectric sensor in the SureSense H18 series, designed for reliable detection in demanding industrial automation environments. With background suppression, it excels at distinguishing objects in the foreground from background surfaces—crucial for applications like conveyor sorting, robotic pick-and-place, and precision packaging.
Operating on visible PinPoint red LED light, this sensor reliably detects objects as close as around 5‚ÄØmm and out to 300‚ÄØmm, giving it a broad detection window suitable for varied object types and placement distances. The sharply focused LED beam (631‚ÄØnm wavelength) enables precise targeting and minimizes false triggers.
Designed for flexible connectivity, the HTB18‑N4C2BF features dual NPN outputs—one configured for light-on switching, the other for dark-on—allowing it to integrate seamlessly into diverse control systems. Two onboard potentiometers add fine-tuning capabilities: one adjusts the sensing range, while the other sets an on‑delay of up to 2 seconds. This enhances performance in processes where timing and detection thresholds must be precisely configured.
Physically, the sensor comes in a compact hybrid housing with M18 form factor (approximately 16.2‚Äö√Ñ√òmm wide, 45.5‚Äö√Ñ√òmm tall, and 31.8‚Äö√Ñ√òmm deep), enabling easy installation in tight spaces. Constructed from durable VISTAL plastic and rated IP67, it’s resistant to dust and water, with some variants also meeting IP69K protection standards‚Äö√Ñ√Æideal for washdown or harsh manufacturing conditions.
Performance-wise, the HTB18‚ÄëN4C2BF offers a fast response time of 0.5 milliseconds and a high switching frequency of up to 1‚ÄØkHz, supporting rapid detection for high-throughput applications and reducing latency in control feedback loops.
The sensor runs on 10‚Äë30‚ÄØV DC, typical for industrial automation, and connects via a 300‚ÄØmm cable with a 4‚Äëpin M12 male connector, facilitating simple wiring and secure installation.
In sum, the SICK HTB18‑N4C2BF is an efficient, durable, and high-performing sensor—well-suited to environments demanding precise, quick, and configurable object detection in a compact, industrial-grade package.
