DL50-P2228 SICK Dx50 Time-of-Flight Sensor 50 m Laser

SICK DL50-P2228 Time-of-Flight Sensor – 50 m Laser Distance Measurement

Key Technical Specifications

• Measuring range spans 200 mm to 50,000 mm when you use diamond grade reflective tape as the target.
• Repeatability reaches ≥ 0.25 mm and measurement accuracy stays within ± 3 mm for reliable results.
• Resolution of 100 µm lets the DL50-P2228 detect small position changes during high precision work.
• Response time offers three settings of 10 ms, 40 ms and 160 ms to match different speed needs.
• Output time of 2.5 ms supports fast control loops in automated machinery.
• Laser class 1 red light source meets IEC 60825-1:2014 and EN 60825-1:2014 standards.
• Typical light spot size measures 15 mm x 15 mm at a 10 m distance.
• Average laser service life reaches 100,000 hours at 25 °C.

Electrical and Output Features

• Supply voltage ranges from 10 V DC to 30 V DC with ripple tolerance up to 5 Vpp.
• Power consumption stays at or below 2.1 W and initialization takes no more than 250 ms.
• One or two PNP digital outputs handle distance-to-object switching with hysteresis from 1 mm to 1,000 mm.
• Maximum output current IA reaches 100 mA for direct load control.
• SSI interface supports synchronous serial data transfer to controllers.
• Additional functions include moving average fast/medium/slow, teach-in, scaling, inversion and laser off control.
• Warm-up time needs no more than 15 minutes before the sensor reaches full stability.
• LC display and two LEDs give clear on-site status feedback.

Ambient and Environmental Data

• Operating temperature ranges from –30 °C to +65 °C for standard installations.
• Two cooling plates extend the operating range to –30 °C ... +80 °C.
• Two cooling plates plus a protection filter push operation up to –30 °C ... +140 °C.
• Storage temperature covers –40 °C to +75 °C without performance loss.
• Relative humidity up to 95 % (non-condensing) causes no damage.
• Ambient light immunity reaches 40,000 lx for stable readings under strong lighting.
• Vibration resistance follows EN 60068-2-6 and EN 60068-2-64 standards.
• Shock resistance meets EN 60068-2-27 for tough factory floors.
• Enclosure rating IP65 and protection class III guard against dust and water spray.

Mechanical Design

• Dimensions measure 36.1 mm x 62.7 mm x 57.7 mm and weight stays at 200 g.
• Zinc diecast metal housing resists impact and vibration in harsh settings.
• PMMA plastic window protects the laser optics while keeping signal clarity.
• Male connector simplifies wiring during installation.

Installation Guide

• Mount the DL50-P2228 on a rigid bracket so the laser beam hits the reflector squarely.
• Keep the light spot clear of obstacles between the sensor and the target tape.
• Connect supply voltage within 10 V ... 30 V DC and check polarity before power-on.
• Route output cables away from strong EMI sources to protect signal quality.
• Use the teach-in function to set switching thresholds for your specific target distance.
• Apply hysteresis settings that match your process tolerance to avoid output chatter.
• Add cooling plates when ambient temperature exceeds +65 °C.
• Verify the LC display readings after warm-up to confirm stable operation.
