Sick - WL8G-P2231 PHOTOELECTRIC SENSOR, RETROREFLECTIVE, 3M RANGE, PNP LO DO, M8 4 PIN CONNECTOR

Miniature Retro-reflectivePhotoelectric Sensor, 3 Metre Range, PNP Output

The SICK WL8G-P2231 Miniature Photoelectric sensor utilises a visible red LED light source, monitoring that beam in order to trigger a process response should the beam be interrupted by an object. This clever sensor features standard optics, variable sensitivity via the built-in potentiometer, robust ABS body, PMMA optics, PNP output, M8 4 pin connector and IP67 rating. These sensors are ideal for high-speed production lines that require rapid object detection and have space limitations.

Common applications for photoelectric sensors include the automotive industry, controlling the transport of components and engine sub-assemblies, production processes, safety systems and material handling systems for easier transporting of goods. Easy to set-up, the WL8G?s visible light source aids and the variable potentiometer aid installation and no enhanced safety measures are needed. Dependable, this Photoelectric Retro-reflective Sensor ensures reliable object detection and is simple to maintain, increasing throughput and helping to reduce overheads.
