SICK Energetic Photoelectric Sensor, Rectangular Sensor, 300 mm Detection Range

W27 photoelectric sensors are suitable for use in a harsh industrial environment. The powerful sensors are designed to withstand strong vibrations, shocks or extreme temperature fluctuations. They offer a high operational reliability even with reflections. Category 3G / 3D photoelectric sensors come with an additional protective metal housing. This housing meets the stringent requirements of ATEX and is therefore a ready-to-install solution.

The directive not only prescribes limit values for temperature, output and UV resistance but also a mechanical strength that standard sensors do not achieve.
