WL2SG-2 MINIATURE PHOTOELECTRIC SENSORS

Product description

New possibilities in machine construc-

tion: the ultra-compact WL2SG-2 minia-

ture photoelectric sensor for detecting

transparent objects offers features

that were previously only available with

much larger sensors. Ampules, foil and

glass are reliably detected in the most

conned of spaces.

The WL2SG-2 is adaptable: dust on

the reector or wear is compensated

for in the same way as temperature

changes and changes in light intensity.

The WL2SG-2 is not only adaptable with

regard to harsh industrial environments

– settings for the respective application

can also be selected via IO-Link.

Special operating modes for gaps in the

bottle ow or for foil tear monitoring are

available for extreme operating condi-

tions. The W2S-2 offers optimal perfor-

mance with an ultra-compact design for

use in both pharmaceutical or automatic

assembly machines.

The newest automation innovation is

already on board. Conguration and

diagnostics are set via the control in the

same way as continuous monitoring.

At a glance

• Extremely high sensor size to sensing

distance ratio

• High switching point accuracy

• Teach-in functions enable reliable

settings

• Automatic switching threshold adap-

tion

• Single-lens autocollimation for visibil-

ity through apertures and drill holes

• Flexible sensor settings, monitoring,

advanced diagnostics, and display

thanks to IO-Link

Your benets

• Machine design exibility: the ultra-

compact sensors offer above-average

sensing distances and provide space-

saving installation

• Remote setup: sensors installed

in conned spaces can be set and

monitored remotely via IO-Link.

• High operational reliability and

system throughput: all familiar,

highly-transparent objects are reliably

detected

• Precise switching characteristics and

a high detection quality guarantee an

universal object detecting

• Universal use: conventional mounting

and housing design

• The precise light spot of the PinPoint

2.0 LED enables the use of very small

reectors and reector surfaces
