SICK Polarised Retro Reflection Photoelectric Sensor, Block Sensor, 0 → 10 m Detection Range

The BluePilot indicator concept on the WLA16 facilitates the alignment of the PinPoint LED to the reflector and monitors the sensor performance even during operation. As designed as a Smart Sensor, it can also be configured via IO-Link and offers additional Smart Tasks.

• 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
• Simplification when aligning the light beam to the reflector thanks to the PinPoint LED and BluePilot
• BluePilot offers the certainty that you are actually taking advantage of the maximum performance
• Continuous display of the operating reserve with BluePilot or via IO-Link
• The Smart Sensor makes machine processes quicker, more efficient and transparent, enables predictive maintenance and is thereby a trailblazer for Industry 4.0 applications

Applications
