Information About WL170-P420

The WL170-P420 belongs to the SICK W170 series of photoelectric sensors and is identified by manufacturer part number 6010186. Its retro-reflective detection principle uses a reflector to return emitted light to the sensor, allowing it to detect objects interrupting the optical path. The sensor provides a PNP switching output and selectable light-on/dark-on operation through its control cable. Its compact rectangular housing, four-pin M8 connector, and IP67 enclosure rating support integration into compatible industrial automation systems.

Key Features:

                                      • Retro-Reflective Detection: Detects objects by monitoring the light returned from a compatible reflector.
                                      • Red LED Light Source: Uses visible red light for optical detection.
                                      • Adjustable Switching Logic: Supports light-on and dark-on switching through the L/D control cable.
                                      • PNP Output: Provides a PNP switching signal for compatible control systems.
                                      • Fast Response: Offers a response time of up to 0.7 ms.
                                      • Wide Supply Range: Operates on 10–30 V DC.
                                      • M8 Connector: Uses a four-pin male connector for electrical connection.

                                      The WL170-P420 provides fast, reliable photoelectric object detection for compatible industrial automation, material handling, and machine-control applications.
