SICK LUT3 Luminescence Sensor – High-Precision Luminescence Sensor for Fluorescent Object Detection
Key Highlights:
- Simple adjustment via potentiometer saves time and costs
- Reliable background fluorescence suppression filter ensures higher process reliability
- Interchangeable lenses for different sensing ranges increase application flexibility
Overview of SICK LUT3 Luminescence Sensor
The LUT3 luminescence sensor belongs to SICK’s luminescence sensor family. It is specially designed to detect objects or marks containing fluorescent substances under UV light. The sensor emits UV light at a wavelength of 375 nm and receives the returned fluorescent light in the 450–750 nm range, ensuring accurate detection even on objects that are difficult to distinguish with conventional photoelectric sensors.
5 Key Features:
- Light source: UV LED, 375 nm wavelength, service life of 100,000 hours
- Sensing distance: 10 / 20 / 50 mm (depending on lens)
- Output: Selectable PNP and NPN, switching frequency 1.5 kHz
- Connection: M12, 4-pin male connector
- Protection rating: IP67 – dust-tight and water-resistant

Industrial Applications of the SICK LUT3 Luminescence Sensor
With its UV-based fluorescence detection capability and rugged IP67 housing, the SICK LUT3 sensor is ideal for many critical applications in Vietnamese manufacturing:
- Label and Fluorescent Barcode Inspection: Detects security labels and invisible fluorescent ink on food and pharmaceutical products. LUT3 ensures 100% label verification before packaging.
- Printing and Packaging Industry: Monitors the position and presence of fluorescent ink during high-speed printing. The 1.5 kHz response frequency ensures no defects are missed even on fast production lines.
- Food & Pharmaceutical Packaging Lines: Detects fluorescent glue or markers on package seals. IP67 rating guarantees stable operation in environments requiring frequent cleaning.
- Automated Quality Control: Verifies the presence of safety fluorescent marks on components. PNP/NPN outputs allow direct connection to PLCs without additional modules.
- Electronics Manufacturing: Detects UV glue, printed marks, or fluorescent substances during PCB and electronic component inspection.
AUMI has provided technical consultation and supplied the LUT3 luminescence sensor to many food and pharmaceutical companies in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, helping them automate label inspection and significantly reduce defective shipments.
