SICK Background Suppression Photoelectric Sensor, Block Sensor, 100 mm → 1.2 m, NPN/PNP, IP67

Overview

At a glance

• Durable plastic housing or zinc die-cast (W24-2)
• Protection cover for the configuration components
• Immune to ambient light and crosstalk from another sensor
• Switch selectable PNP or NPN output
• Switch selectable Light or Dark operating mode
• Versions with DC voltage (10…30V) or universal AC/DC voltage (12 … 240 V DC / 24 … 240 V AC)
• Optional test input, adjustable ON and OFF time delays, alarm output
• M12 or terminal chamber connection: 90° rotatable
• UL approval

Your Benefit

• Excellent resistance to chemicals, which increases sensor life and reduces replacement costs
• The sensor cover protects configuration components against environmental hazards and reduces the variety of devices needed for stocking
• Immune to ambient light and crosstalk from another sensor, providing reliable operation and less downtime

The W34 photoelectric sensor family features a durable plastic housing in ABS. All configuration components for the sensor are protected by a durable cover, allowing these sensors to be used in outdoor areas. The housing in die-cast zinc (W24-2) is recommended especially for tough and extreme ambient conditions.
A variety of other features are also available including, adjustable time delay, alarm output, test input, and DC voltage and universal AC/DC voltage. These provide additional flexibility and reduce the number of part numbers needed.
The W34 family includes background suppression proximity, retro-reflective and through-beam sensors. The background suppression proximity sensors are characterized by a long sensing range and immunity to ambient light.

Applications

• High operating reserve at a long sensing range of retro-reflective and through-beam sensors ensures reliable operation
• Variants with DC voltage and universal AC/DC voltage provide installation flexibility
