G10 SICK Photoelectric Sensor – Long-Range Sensing, Ultra-Fast Installation
Overview:
- Long detection range: 1,200 mm with background suppression; 15 m with PL80A reflector
- Supports both DC and multi-voltage AC/DC power supply for greater application flexibility
- High reliability and durability, immune to optical and mechanical interference
- Wide range of accessories for simplified integration
Product Overview – G10 SICK Photoelectric Sensor
The G10 photoelectric sensor from SICK is engineered to deliver superior detection performance in a compact housing (20 × 50 × 39 mm). It supports multiple operating principles: proximity (background suppression and energetic), retroreflective, and through-beam – offering the longest sensing ranges in its class.
The most distinctive feature of the G10 is SICK’s patented Q-Lock assembly system, which allows sensor mounting and alignment in just a few seconds using a special mounting bar. This dramatically reduces installation time when deploying large numbers of sensors in warehouses and logistics conveyor systems.
5 Key Highlights of the G10 SICK Sensor:
- Sensing Range: Up to 2,000 mm (energetic proximity), 12.5m (retroreflective), 80 m (through-beam)
- Protection Rating: IP67 – fully dust-tight and water-resistant
- Power Supply: 10–30 VDC or 24–240 VAC/VDC (depending on model) – compatible with any system
- Connection: M12 4-pin / 2–5 m cable (depending on model); PNP / NPN / Relay output
- Special Features: Q-Lock assembly system, PinPoint LED, metal-reinforced mounting holes

Industrial Applications of G10 SICK Photoelectric Sensors
- Logistics & Warehousing – Pallet Detection: The G10 is the top choice for pallet detection on warehouse conveyors thanks to its sensing range of up to 2,000 mm (proximity) and the Q-Lock system, which enables rapid installation of hundreds of sensors. It is one of the most widely used SICK sensors in sortation conveyor systems in Vietnam.
- Automatic Gates & Smart Parking Systems: G10 retroreflective models with 0.08 m … 15 m sensing range and AC/DC power supply are directly compatible with 220V mains, making them ideal for vehicle gates, parking barriers, and automatic rolling doors.
- Packaging Machines & Wood Processing: G10 proximity sensors reliably detect materials and coordinate production rhythm on packaging lines and sawing/planing machines. A single sensor family can serve an entire factory.
- Automotive Industry: G10 through-beam sensors with up to 80 m range are suitable for vehicle detection in large assembly plants, internal parking areas, and automated vehicle routing systems.
- Distribution & Sorting: G10 sensors with PinPoint LED provide precise object detection on high-speed sorting conveyors. Potentiometer adjustment allows technicians to quickly fine-tune according to product dimensions.
AUMI has successfully deployed G10 SICK photoelectric sensors in numerous logistics centers and packaging factories across Vietnam, especially in automated conveyor projects. The Q-Lock system significantly shortens installation time and reduces operating costs.
