High-performance fiber-optic sensor WLL180T - SICK

High-performance fiber-optic sensor with world’s fastest response time!
The WLL180T fiber-optic photoelectric sensor family, from SICK, provides the world’s fastest response time - only 16μs.

In addition, it offers superior sensing distances of up to 20m and its high light intensity delivers a reliable, high-powered solution – even in difficult ambient conditions, like dust, spray, mist, and water jets. Commissioning is simple – either via the external teach-in input or directly on the unit. Two, four-digit displays provide visualization of all programming steps, status displays, plus target and actual values through an intuitive menu structure. The WLL180T sensors can be operated either as a stand-alone or in a bus configuration, depending on the requirements. In a bus configuration, several sensors are networked via an internal bus, enabling the settings on one WLL180T to be copied to all other devices on the bus. Fiber-optic amplifier cross-talk is prevented by the sensors integrated anti-interference logic.
