W12-2 Laser Direct Detect


SICK W12L-2 photoelectric sensors are enclosed in a rugged metal housing for demanding applications. Distinguished by the ability to offer reliable detection over long sensing distances. The sensors are compatible for various operations, with the in-built SICK ASIC technology. The W12L-2 photoelectric sensors offer many advantages over conventional optical sensors due to superior OES technology. With a wide selection of variants, simple mounting and excellent detection reliability, even under difficult conditions.
Red light laser technology detects all kinds of objects including transparent objects, light & dark, large or small and even people. The laser technology enables quick and easy sensor alignment and provides a precise, highly visible light spot that is unaffected by peripheral light.

Features and Benefits


• Reliable object detection of small objects due to superior ASIC (application-specific integrated circuit) technology
• Red light laser technology provides quick and easy alignment of sensor
• Precise switching characteristics ensure reliable object detection
• Rugged metal housing enables application flexibility in a broad range of harsh industrial environments
• Flexible mounting options reduce installation time
• IO-Link provides easy data access from the PLC
• Resistance to optical interference reduces false readings and downtime
• Rotatable connector provides easy installation
