WLA16 – The highflyer in object detection


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.

Your benefits


• 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

• 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.
