Safety light-beam sensors - UE403 is part of SICK's industrial safety light-beam sensors portfolio. The UE403 family is designed for professional machine, production and process environments where dependable sensing, safety monitoring, measurement or motion feedback is required. This product entry is written as customer-facing ecommerce content and keeps the technical identity tied to the SICK family documentation rather than introducing unsupported specifications.
The core function of the UE403 family is to provide a defined, repeatable signal to the automation system. The published source describes the product around its operating principle and configuration structure, while the technical table below records the values that can be stated directly from the SICK documentation. Where a parameter is configuration-dependent, that dependency is retained rather than replaced with an assumed single value.
The documented application strengths of this family include “Muting control for M4000 Advanced” “Connection for 2 ... 4 muting sensors” “External lamp, reset/override and belt-stop functions” “Concurrence and total muting-time monitoring”. These characteristics make the range relevant where repeatable machine signals, controlled sensing, dependable safeguarding, process measurement or motion feedback are required.
The SICK documentation publishes Compatible ESPE: M4000 Advanced; Safety level: PL e / SIL3 / Type 4; Enclosure rating: IP65; Ambient operating temperature: −30 °C ... +55 °C; Muting sensors: 2 ... 4. These values define the engineering envelope described by the source material and should be read together with the selected ordering code where the family contains multiple configurations.
The SICK documentation publishes Configuration: RS-232; Typical type: UE403-A0930; Part no. shown in family overview: 1026287. These values define the engineering envelope described by the source material and should be read together with the selected ordering code where the family contains multiple configurations.
The published SICK configuration defines the electrical and communication architecture for UE403. Depending on the documented type, this can include the stated supply, switching outputs, analog signals, safety outputs, industrial communications, connectors or other interfaces. The specification table keeps those source values explicit so they can be checked during engineering and purchasing.
The family is intended for industrial installation, with the source documentation defining its housing, enclosure, temperature, mechanical and connection characteristics where these are published. No additional material or environmental ratings have been added where SICK does not publish them for the family row.
For system integration, selection should follow the required sensing or safety range, output behaviour, connection, mounting arrangement and environmental conditions. The SICK documentation is structured around ordering variants, so the exact part number should be checked before purchase or installation. This is particularly important where the family offers multiple electrical interfaces, optical arrangements, resolutions, safety functions or housing options.
Commissioning should use the SICK installation and configuration documentation for the selected ordering code. Confirm mechanical clearances, electrical compatibility, required accessories, safety architecture and application-specific parameters before putting the device into service. For safety-related products, the final system design must follow the applicable SICK documentation and the relevant safety standards for the complete machine.
The published SICK application scope for this family includes Material transport, Conveyor muting, Access protection. The appropriate use depends on the actual machine architecture, target object or medium, required operating range and selected variant. The family is particularly suited to engineering-led procurement where exact product configuration matters.
Use the official SICK ordering configuration to select the exact version required for the installation. The technical table below is the source-backed selection reference for this ecommerce listing; it deliberately avoids filling unsupported values with estimates or generic industry assumptions.
