DS50-N1122 SICK Dx50 Switching Sensor Dual NPN 10m HDDM IP65

DS50-N1122 SICK Dx50 Switching Distance Sensor

DS50-N1122 from SICK is a dual-switching optical time-of-flight sensor. It detects natural objects up to 10 m with adjustable thresholds. The Dx50 DS50 Switching family uses HDDM™ technology for stable performance under ambient light. Two NPN outputs give flexible control for industrial automation.

FAQ

Q: Can this sensor replace a reflector-based unit?

A: Yes. It detects natural objects directly up to 10 m. No reflector needed.

Q: How do I choose between fast and slow response?

A: Use fast (10 ms) for high-speed sorting. Use slow (50 ms) for stable readings on moving targets.

Q: What cable do I need for the 5-pin M12 connector?

A: Use a standard 5-pin M12 A-coded cable. Match pinout to NPN outputs and supply voltage.

Q: Does it work in cold storage?

A: Yes. Standard range starts at -30 °C. No heater is built in, but cooling plates extend high-temp use.

Q: How do I set the switching hysteresis?

A: Use the LC display and menu buttons. Range is 1 mm to 9,999 mm. Adjust to reduce false switching.
