Overview
Maximum performance for handling demanding detection tasks involving tiny objects. With its precise laser light spot, the W4SL-3 miniature product family sets new standards by providing high optical light immunity from undesired background reflections and immunity to ambient light - even from modern energy-saving lamps. The combination of SICK's proprietary laser and ASIC technologies reduces incorrect switching to minimize machine downtime, reducing the variety of devices and saving on storage costs. The photoelectric sensors also provide an IO-Link interface for initial system performance diagnostics. Furthermore, IO-Link permits the integration of additional functions such as meters directly into the sensor. There is no need for complex control programming.

Your Benefit
Precise laser light spot for highly accurate switching behavior
High optical ambient light immunity reduces incorrect switching and thus machine downtime, even when modern energy-saving lamps are used
The highest degree of machine design flexibility BGS (background suppression) eliminates the effect of undesired background reflections. In addition, autocollimation allows detection through small drilled holes
One device for detecting both transparent objects and the smallest non-transparent objects, thus reducing the variety of sensors and saving on storage costs
IO-Link facilitates initial system performance diagnostics and uses additional sensor functions (optional) to reduce complex control programming
