Miniature Through-Beam Photoelectric Sensor
The Sick GSE6-N411 is a rectangular through-beam photoelectric sensor measuring 12 mm by 31.5 mm by 21 mm. It operates on a 10 V DC to 30 V DC supply and connects via a 4-pin M8 male connector. The unit weighs 40 g and carries an IP67 enclosure rating for dust and water protection. It is suited for automation engineers needing compact object detection.
Sustained Operation Characteristics
The sensor draws a maximum of 30 mA and delivers an NPN switching output rated at 100 mA. Its switching frequency reaches 1,000 Hz with a response time under 500 µs, maintaining consistent timing during continuous duty. The housing uses ABS/PC plastic and PMMA optics rated for ambient temperatures from –25 °C to +55 °C. Circuit protection covers supply polarity, output short-circuit, and transient over-voltage.
15 m Maximum Sensing Range Decides Fit
The PinPoint LED emits visible red light at 650 nm, producing a 375 mm light spot at 12 m distance. Maximum sensing range extends to 15 m, while the specified operating range reaches 10 m. Light/dark switching is selectable via a built-in selector with no potentiometer adjustment. Buyers needing longer range or analogue output should consider other sensor types.

Questions about this item
How much heat does the 30 mA power draw produce during continuous operation?
At 30 mA from a 10–30 V DC supply the sensor dissipates well under one watt, so self-heating is negligible in normal use.
What power supply and cable are needed to run the sensor?
A 10–30 V DC source and a 4-pin M8 male connector cable are required; the sensor has no built-in cable.
Will the 1 kHz switching frequency keep up with legacy relay logic running at 500 Hz?
Yes, the 1 000 Hz switching frequency is twice the relay rate, so the sensor can follow legacy logic without missed pulses.
