DT50-P2113 is a medium-range laser ranging sensor produced by SICK in Germany, which is based on the "Time-of-Flight" (ToF) principle for distance measurement, with the characteristics of high precision and fast response. With a red laser light source, analog output (4-20mA or 0-10V) and digital output (PNP/NPN) and integrated IO-Link communication interface, the sensor is suitable for a wide range of inspection tasks in the field of industrial automation.

- Resolution: 1 mm
- Accuracy: ±7 mm (depending on ambient temperature)
- Response time: 15 ms ~ 80 ms (adjustable)
- **Output**: Analog (4-20mA/0-10V), Digital Switching (PNP/NPN), IO-Link
- **Protection Grade**: IP65/IP67, suitable for harsh industrial environment
- **Operating Temperature**: -30°C ~ 65°C.
Product Advantages
1. **High Accuracy & Stability**
- Patented HDDM (High Definition Distance Measurement) technology ensures measurement accuracy and repeatability (repeatability ≥ 1 mm).
- Detects natural objects (e.g. wood, metal, plastic, etc.) regardless of surface color or material.
2. **Flexible Output & Communication**
- Supports multiple output modes (analog, digital, IO-Link) for easy integration into PLCs or industrial control systems.
- The IO-Link interface supports remote parameter configuration and fault diagnosis to improve maintenance efficiency.
3. **Fast Commissioning & Ease of Use**
- LCD display and intuitive teach-in (Easy-Teach) simplify installation and calibration.
- Adjustable sliding average and hysteresis to adapt to different dynamic detection needs.
4. **Rugged and durable**
- Metal housing (die-cast zinc) and PMMA plexiglass protection for impact, dust and water resistance for harsh industrial environments.
5. **Long Life & Low Maintenance**
- Laser light source life up to 100,000 hours at 25°C reduces the frequency of replacement.
