SICK Background Suppression Photoelectric Sensor, Block Sensor, 10 mm → 500 mm Detection Range

The WTB16 Background suppression sensor is precise, reliable and thanks to the new OptoFilter technology has high ambient light immunity. It can be quickly and conveniently adjusted via the BluePilot operating and indicator concept.

• Reliable detection and very precise leading edge detection thanks to the small and homogeneous light spot
of the PinPoint LED
• OptoFilter protects from operational interruptions caused by LED illumination or background reflections, e.g.
from safety vests
• Free choice of sensor adjustment: Intuitively, quickly and precisely on the housing via the Teach-Turn
adjustment or via IO-Link with pushbutton lock for preventing manipulation
• Enormous simplification when aligning the light beam to the object thanks to the PinPoint LED
• The Smart Sensor makes machine processes quicker, more efficient and transparent

Applications

• Packaging
• Food and beverage
• Handling and assembly
• Machine tools
• Storage and conveyor
• Rubber and plastics
• Wood
• Textile

For retro-reflective sensors a suitable reflector is required.
For PL80A, PL30A & C110 reflectors see stock nos. 265-2776, 265-2760 & 265-2748 respectively.
