Information About WT18-3N430
The WT18-3N430 is part of SICK’s WT18 photoelectric sensor series, developed for robust proximity sensing in industrial environments. It operates using background suppression to differentiate target objects from reflective or distant backgrounds. The sensor supports light and dark switching modes, allowing flexible integration into control logic. Designed for industrial installations, it connects via a standardized 4-pin M12 male connector and allows sensitivity adjustment using a built-in potentiometer.
Key Features:
- Background Suppression Technology: Enables precise detection while ignoring background surfaces.
- Wide Sensing Range: Detects objects from 10 mm up to 600 mm.
- NPN Switching Output: Compatible with standard industrial PLC and control inputs.
- Light/Dark Switching Modes: Supports flexible output behavior based on application needs.
- Adjustable Sensitivity: Integrated potentiometer allows fine-tuning for optimal detection.
- LED Light Source: Provides stable optical performance and reliable detection.
- Standard M12 Connectivity: Uses a 4-pin M12 male connector for secure installation.
The WT18-3N430 delivers the reliability and precision required for background-suppressed photoelectric proximity detection in industrial automation systems.
