W16 Series Photoelectric Sensors


WSE16 – The highflyer in object detection


With the new BluePilot optical intensity display in the WSE16, alignment is more precise, and the sensor performance can be monitored during operation. The WSE16 through-beam photoelectric sensor gets by without the sensitivity adjustment necessary on other devices. Every WSE16 is designed as a Smart Sensor.

Your benefits


• Reliable detection and very precise leading edge detection thanks to the small and homogeneous light spot of the PinPoint LED
• Simplification when aligning the light beam to the receiver thanks to the PinPoint LED in combination with 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

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

Note

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