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.
■
Do not install the sensor at locations that are exposed to direct sunlight
or other weather influences, unless this is expressly permitted in the operating
instructions.
■These operating instructions contain information required during the life cycle of
the sensor.
2 Notes on UL approval
UL: Only for use in applications in accordance with NFPA 79. These devices shall be
protected by a 1 A fuse suitable for 30 V DC.
Adapters listed by UL with connection cables are available.
Enclosure type 1.
3 Intended use
The GRSE18(S)V is an opto-electronic through-beam photoelectric sensor (referred to
as “sensor” in the following) for the optical, non-contact detection of objects, animals,
and persons. A sender (GRS) and a receiver (GRE) are required for operation. If the
product is used for any other purpose or modified in any way, any warranty claim
against SICK AG shall become void.

6 Electrical installation
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:
– Male connector connection: pin assignment
– Cable: wire color
Only apply voltage/switch on the voltage supply (UV > 0 V) once all electrical connec‐
tions have been established. The green LED indicator lights up on the sensor.

7.1 Alignment
Align the sender with the receiver. Select the position so that the red emitted light beam
hits the receiver. Tip: Use white paper or a reflector as an alignment aid. The sender
must have a clear view of the receiver, with no object in the path of the beam [see
figure 3]. You must ensure that the optical openings (front screen) of the sensors are
completely clear.
Align the sender with the receiver. Select the position so that the infrared light (not
visible) hits the receiver. The correct alignment can only be detected via the LEDs. See
figure 3 and table 3. The sender must have a clear view of the receiver, with no object
in the path of the beam. You must ensure that the optical openings (front screen) of the
sensors are completely clear.
Figure 3: Alignment
7.2 Check the application conditions
Observe the application conditions: Adjust the distance between the sender and the
receiver according to the corresponding diagram [see figure 0] (x = sensing range, y =
operating reserve).
If several through-beam photoelectric sensors which are installed next to one another
are to be used, we recommend swapping the sender/receiver arrangement at every
second through-beam photoelectric sensor and ensuring that there is sufficient dis‐
tance between the through-beam photoelectric sensors. By doing this, mutual interfer‐
ence can be prevented [see figure 2].

7.3 Setting
Sensitivity setting
Sensor which it is not possible to set: The sensor is adjusted and ready for operation.
The sensitivity is adjusted with the potentiometer (type: 270°). Clockwise rotation:
operating reserve increased; counterclockwise rotation: operating reserve reduced. We
recommend setting the potentiometer to “Maximum”.
The sensor is adjusted and ready for operation.
