Sick W4S-3 series Photoelectric sensor
- Best background suppression sensor in its class
- Universal use of PinPoint LED technology in all models
- BGS proximity sensor with laser-like light spot for precise detection tasks
- Reliable setting via 5-turn potentiometer, teach-in pushbutton, teach-in via cable or IO-Link
- Flexible sensor settings, monitoring, advanced diagnostics, and visualization thanks to IO-Link
Benefits
- Application versatility due to reliable detection of shiny, transparent or jet-black objects
- Very quick and easy alignment due to the highly visible, intense PinPoint LED light spot
- Rugged mounting system with M3 threaded metal inserts reduces maintenance costs due to a long service life
- Background suppression sensors with a laser-like light spot reduce costs and installation of additional protective measures by replacing laser sensors
- IO-Link provides easy data access from the PLC
- Quick and easy configuration
- Quick and easy integration using function blocks
