Information About WT160-N460

The WT160-N460 is part of SICK’s WT160 series, engineered for accurate proximity detection where background interference must be minimized. It uses background suppression technology to ensure stable switching regardless of reflective or varying background conditions. The sensor is optimized for use in assembly systems, packaging machinery, and automated production lines. Its durable housing and integrated electronics support consistent performance in continuous industrial operation.

Key Features:

  • Background Suppression Technology: Reliably detects objects while ignoring background surfaces.
  • Short Detection Range: Supports precise sensing from 2 mm to 100 mm.
  • Photoelectric Proximity Principle: Enables non-contact object detection.
  • WT160 Series Design: Built for versatile industrial sensing applications.
  • M8 4-Pin Male Connector: Provides secure and standardized electrical connection.
  • Fast Switching Response: Suitable for high-speed automation processes.
  • Compact Housing: Ideal for installations with limited mounting space.
  • Stable Detection Performance: Maintains accuracy across varying target colors and materials.
  • Industrial-Grade Construction: Designed for long-term use in automation environments.

The WT160-N460 delivers the reliability and precision required for short-range industrial object detection and background suppression applications.
