The SICK KT5W-2N1116 series contrast sensors are engineered for precision in packaging, labeling, and material handling automation. Featuring a powerful RGB LED light source and a teach-in button for static 2-point adjustment, these sensors deliver consistent performance even on challenging surfaces like glossy or multicolored materials. With a 10 mm sensing distance and a small, vertical light spot (1.2 mm x 4.2 mm), the KT5W-2N1116 ensures accurate edge detection and registration mark control. Built with a robust zinc diecast housing and IP67 protection, it withstands dust, moisture, and vibration in industrial environments. The family includes NPN (KT5W-2N1116, KT5W-2N1116D) and PNP (KT5W-2P1116, KT5W-2P2116) output options, all with M12 5-pin connectors for easy integration.
