1 General safety notes
■Read the operating instructions before commissioning.
■
Connection, mounting, and configuration may only be performed by trained
specialists.
■
2006/42/EC
NO
SAFETY
Not a safety component in accordance with the EU Machinery Directive.
■
When commissioning, protect the device from moisture and contamination.
■These operating instructions contain information required during the life cycle of
the sensor.
2 Notes on UL approval
The device must be supplied by a Class 2 source of supply.
UL Environmental Rating: Enclosure type 1
3 Intended use
The RAY26 is an opto-electronic photoelectric retro-reflective sensor (referred to as
“sensor” in the following) for the optical, non-contact detection of objects, animals, and
persons. A reflector is required for this product to function. If the product is used for any
other purpose or modified in any way, any warranty claim against SICK AG shall become
void.

NOTE
RAY26P-XXXXX1XX (MDO ≥ 1 MM),
RAY26P-XXXXX3XX (MDO ≥ 3 MM):
Recommended position of installation: between conveyor belts or conveyor rollers
6 Electrical installation
Operation in standard I/O mode:
The sensors must be connected in a voltage-free state (UV = 0 V). The following informa‐
tion must be observed, depending on the connection type:
– Plug connection: note pin assignment
– Cable: wire color
Only apply voltage/switch on the voltage supply (UV > 0 V) once all electrical connec‐
tions have been established.
Operation in IO-Link mode: Connect the device to a suitable IO-Link master and inte‐
grate in the master or control via IODD/function block. The green LED indicator flashes
on the sensor. IODD and function block are available to download from www.sick.com
under the part number.

7 Commissioning
1Alignment
Align the sensor with a suitable reflector. Select the position so that the red emitted light
beam hits the center of the reflector. The frontlens of the sensor and the reflector have to
be cleaned before teaching.
The sensor must have a clear view of the reflector, with no object in the path of the beam
[ see figure 1]. You must ensure that the optical openings of the sensor and reflector are
completely clear.

1. Alignment of the light band in the gap between two conveyor belts
2. a) Alignment of the light band above the conveyor belt.
The light band has to be positioned parallel to the conveyor belt.
3 mm
b)

1 = metal plate
Take a metal plate and position it in front of the reflector. Rotate the sensor up a lit‐
tle. The light band is approx. 20 mm above the conveyor belt.
c)
Rotate the sensor down a little until the lower edge of the light band will hit the con‐
veyor belt (see light band on metal plate). Then fix the housing at the bracket. The
light band may not be moved further into the conveyor.

NOTE
Tip:
1 Control of the setting: Switch on conveyor belt. In "idling mode" (conveyor belt moves
without material to be conveyed), the sensor must not switch. Switch on conveyor
belt. Place the goods in succession on the conveyor belt edges and in the middle on
the belt to check the reliable detection in three places.

3Conveyor blanking (only for RAY26P-xxxxx3)
The conveyor blanking allows a stepwise inactivation of the detection area (A = approx.
1 mm for each level) just above the conveyor belt. Thereby influences of the conveyor belt
(which causes false signals of the sensor) can be suppressed. The setting of the conveyor
blanking can be done via IO-Link with the index 238.
After setting the sensor has to be taught again (index 2, value 65).

table 4, page 8
a) IO-Link communication
b) Change of the configuration
c) Short-circuit
a) None
b) Adjustment of the configu‐
ration

tions
The blue LEDs are very close
together
Front screen and/or reflector
is contaminated.
Cleaning of the optical sur‐
faces (sensor and reflector).
Yellow LED flashes Distance between sensor and
reflector is too large / light
band is not completely aligned
to the reflector / reflector is
not suitable / front screen
and/or reflector is contami‐
nated
Check sensing range / check
alignment / SICK reflector is
recommended / Cleaning of
the optical surfaces (sensor
and reflector)
Yellow LED does not light up
even though the light band is
aligned to the reflector and
there is no object in the path of
the beam
No voltage or voltage below
the limit values
Check the power supply,
check all electrical connec‐
tions (cables and plug connec‐
tions)
