Flexible sensor settings, monitoring, advanced diagnostics, and visualization thanks to IO-Link

Your Benefit


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

The W4S-3 family of photoelectric sensors offers best-in-class performance in a slim housing design. Universal use of the latest ASIC and PinPoint LED technologies provide maximum reliability in the detection of all objects, including transparent and shiny objects like blisters, e-cards and aluminum cans. Optical axes on the flat side enable simple, space-saving integration in the machine environment - even without separate mounting brackets.

Applications


Access protection with muting on belt conveyors
Checking presence and level monitoring in a vibratory bowl feeder
Checking presence at the dispenser
Integrated object and gap measurement when feeding products
Reliable, cost-effective detection of secondary packaging in harsh environments
