The Sick WT12-2P440 is a state-of-the-art photoelectric proximity sensor from the WT12-2 series, designed to offer reliable and precise object detection in a variety of industrial applications. This robust sensor features a block-style metal and die-cast zinc housing, measuring 15 x 41.5 x 65.5 mm, which ensures durability and resilience in challenging environments.
Engineered for versatility, the WT12-2P440 operates within a sensing range of 35 to 100 mm and utilises visible red light for detection, making alignment and setup straightforward. The sensor's functionality is enhanced by background suppression technology, which allows it to distinguish between the target and the background with high accuracy.
The sensor is equipped with a potentiometer for easy adjustment and fine-tuning of the sensing range to meet the specific needs of your application. With a supply voltage of 10 to 30 V dc and a current consumption of 30 mA, it is an energy-efficient solution for your sensing requirements. The quick response time of ≤330 µs ensures timely and responsive operation, critical for fast-paced industrial processes.
The WT12-2P440 features a PNP switching output and offers the flexibility of light/dark switching, which can be manually selected based on the requirements of the application. The sensor's connection is facilitated by a male M12, 4-pin connector, providing a secure and easy-to-install interface.
With an enclosure rating of IP67, the WT12-2P440 is well-protected against dust and water ingress, making it suitable for use in a wide range of environmental conditions, including those with stringent hygiene standards. Whether used in automation, packaging, material handling, or manufacturing, this sensor is designed to deliver reliable performance and enhance the efficiency of your operations.
