The Sick WL160-P440 is a high-performance photoelectric retro-reflective sensor designed for precise and reliable object detection. With a compact block design measuring 11 x 38 x 38 mm, this sensor is ideal for applications where space is limited. It features a maximum sensing range of up to 3 metres, making it suitable for a variety of industrial environments. The sensor operates using visible red light with a wavelength of 680 nm, emitted by an LED light source. It offers a selectable switching mode, allowing for light or dark switching, and provides a fast response time of less than 0.9 milliseconds. Constructed with a durable ABS plastic housing and PMMA optics, the WL160-P440 is built to withstand challenging conditions, with an operating temperature range from -25°C to +55°C. The sensor is equipped with a 4-pin M8 male connector for easy integration into existing systems.
