Information About WLL12-B5181
The WLL12-B5181 is associated with Sick’s W12-2 product group and carries manufacturer article number 1011677. Its rectangular zinc die-cast housing contains the light source, evaluation electronics, and sensitivity control. Compatible fiber optic cables carry light between the amplifier and the detection location, with achievable range depending on the selected fiber arrangement and target. A five-pin M12 male connector provides the supply, output, and light/dark selection connections.
Key Features:
- Fiber Optic Operation: Works with compatible fiber optic cables to position the sensing head separately from the amplifier.
- PNP/NPN Outputs: Provides output connections for compatible sourcing and sinking control inputs.
- Adjustable Sensitivity: Uses a potentiometer to set the detection threshold.
- Light/Dark Switching: Supports selection of the required output switching behavior.
- Fast Response: Evaluates received light with a response time of ≤360 µs.
- Visible Red LED: Supplies red light through the connected fiber optic system.
- M12 Connection: Uses a five-pin male connector for electrical integration.
- Metal Housing: Combines a zinc die-cast body with an IP67 enclosure rating.
The WLL12-B5181 delivers the reliability and precision required for fiber optic object detection and automated machine sequencing.
