SICK VSE18L-4P324 Photoelectric Laser Sensor (6027931)

The SICK VSE18L-4P324 is a high-performance through-beam photoelectric sensor designed for precise long-distance detection of small objects. With a sensing range up to 60 meters and a focused laser beam with just 0.06° dispersion, this sensor excels in demanding industrial applications where speed, accuracy, and compact design are critical.

Housed in a rugged M18 nickel-plated brass cylindrical body and protected to IP67 standards, the VSE18L is ideal for use in harsh automation environments.
