W4S-3 INOX
Miniature Photoelectric Sensors Series
Smaller, tougher, better.
Best optical performance in a robust stainless steel housing.
DATA SHEET
Your machine is cleaned with steam
jets and highly aggressive cleaning
agents. You expect state-of-the-art
sensor technology to reliably detect
all of your target objects. You need to
adjust the sensor quickly and reliably
and have optional diagnostic informa-
tion available. If so, the new W4S-3
INOX is the sensor product for you.
It combines a proven sensor core in
a robust housing. Robust because
the V4A/316L casing with a specially
coated, scratch-resistant front screen
withstands all known cleaning proce-
dures.
The tried and tested individual models
of the W4S-3 series, with their special
features, are also available in the
INOX range. Thus, all models feature
SICK PinPoint technology, which still
sets market standards.
Fast and simple installation: one par-
ticular feature is adjustment of
the sensor via the use of a teach-in
button covered by a stainless steel
metal membrane with a click effect.
The sensors may also be adjusted re-
motely via a control wire, or full com-
munication via IO Link can now per-
mit monitoring and diagnostics
to become a reality.
The W4S-3 INOX series complies
with the most important standards
such as ECOLAB, FDA and EHEDG
and ensures maximum protection
(IP 69K).
This new range is suitable for a multi-
tude of applications in the food and
beverage sectors. However, applica-
tion problems in other, harsh environ-
ments may also be solved reliably.

The W4S-3 INOX series is one of the most space saving mini-
ature sensors for application solutions in harsh environments.
The stainless steel housing and the specially coated front
screen make this series extremely resistant to the effects of
chemicals, and cleaning is simple and reliable.
