WTV4FE-84161120A00 Sick Background Suppression Photoelectric Sensor, Miniature Sensor, 2 → 50 mm Detection Range IO-LINK

Overview_x000D_ With the W4F, high performance and smart automation are now also available in a miniature size. The miniature sensor is the perfect complement to the product range of a new generation of opto-electronic sensors such as the W16 and W26 and, thanks to the new ASIC technology from SICK, consistently delivers extremely reliable detection results. This allows for versatile use in a wide range of challenging installation situations. Thanks to ForegroundSuppression, DoubleLine, V-optics and MultiSwitch, the W4F is a high-performance application specialist: Background suppression is improved, and flat, highly-reflective and transparent objects are detected even more precisely. In addition, the W4F as Smart Sensors make monitoring and diagnostics easier than ever before and enable future-proof use in I4.0 plants._x000D_ At a glance_x000D_ Technologies: ForegroundSuppression, DoubleLine, V-optics and MultiSwitch_x000D_ Two switching points and distance value output in one device_x000D_ Diffuse sender LED for ambient light suppression_x000D_ BluePilot: Teach-Turn adjustment with optical sensing range and alignment aid_x000D_ Smart Sensor: Latest diagnostics and monitoring functions_x000D_ VISTAL® housing_x000D_ Your Benefit_x000D_ Solution for particularly challenging detection tasks in tight installation spaces_x000D_ Very high reliability through powerful background suppression and excellent detection of flat, highly-reflective and transparent objects_x000D_ Two switching points as well as the output of distance values expand the application possibilities_x000D_ Flexible use thanks to high optical reliability_x000D_ The highly-visible light spot combined with the intuitive BluePilot operating interface enables set-up in mere seconds_x000D_ Maximum monitoring and process reliability thanks to intelligent monitoring and predictive maintenance_x000D_ As Smart Sensors, fit for Industry 4.0_x000D_ The Sick WTV4FE series is a miniature photoelectric proximity sensor, which has the sensing range from 2 mm to max 50 mm and has PinPoint LED light source.
