Overview


The W250 family of photoelectric sensors is characterized by a special combination where both DC and AC/DC types are integrated in one highly compact housing. With a cable variant and a rotatable male connector variant, the W250 is highly flexible when it comes to system integration. Users are aided by an easy-to-read positioning indicator when adjusting sensitivity and sensing distance. Light/dark switching via a control cable cuts the number of device variants by half and reduces storage.
