SICK Photoelectric Sensors WL12-3P2431

The Photoelectric Sensor WL12-3P2431 from Sick features a sensing range of up to 7 meters and operates on a PNP output. It utilizes a retro-reflective sensing method with a visible red light source (LED) at a wavelength of 640 nm. The sensor has a compact rectangular design with dimensions of 15.6 mm x 48.5 mm x 42 mm and is housed in a metal enclosure rated IP66, IP67, and IP69K, making it suitable for harsh environments. It operates within a supply voltage range of 10 V DC to 30 V DC and has a maximum output current of 100 mA. The response time is ,⧠330 ¬µs, with a switching frequency of up to 1,500 Hz. The sensor is equipped with a potentiometer for adjustment and features reverse-polarity protection, interference suppression, and overcurrent protection. It can function in ambient temperatures ranging from -40 ¬8C to +60 ¬8C, making it versatile for various industrial applications.
