SICK DT1000-S11101 Sensor
SICK DT1000-S11101 laser distance sensor, part 1075436. Precise short-range distance measurement with visible light spot for positioning tasks.
Overview
The SICK DT1000-S11101 (part number 1075436) is a photoelectric laser distance sensor of the DT1000 family. It delivers precise short-to-medium range distance values with a visible light spot and is used for precise positioning, fill-level checks and small distance monitoring on automated machinery.
How It Works
The sensor evaluates the runtime or phase of the reflected laser light and converts it into a distance-proportional signal. Switching outputs report when the object crosses set distances. The visible red light spot makes it simple to verify exactly where the sensor is measuring.
Key Features
- Precise laser distance measurement in a compact housing
- Visible red light spot for accurate aiming
- Distance-based evaluation independent of target color
- Suitable for precise end-position and fill checks
- Part number 1075436
- Fast response for dynamic processes
Typical Applications
- Precise positioning of dispensing and gluing heads
- End-position monitoring of pneumatic and servo axes
- Fill-level checks in small containers
- Web loop and sag monitoring
- Verification of part seating in fixtures

Installation and Setup Notes
Aim the light spot at a flat, representative area of the target and mount the sensor free of vibration. Confirm the measured values against a reference at two distances to check linearity at the installation site. Keep the optical window clean, as contamination shifts the received signal.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is the DT1000 different from a standard photoelectric sensor?
It measures the actual distance to the target rather than just detecting presence, so it can monitor positions and levels.
Can it measure moving targets?
Yes, its fast response suits dynamic processes such as passing workpieces.
What output does the S11101 variant provide?
The order code identifies the switching and connection configuration of this variant within the DT1000 family.
