SICK Glass, Plastic Fibre Optic Sensor, PNP Output, IP50, 24V dc WLL180T-P435

The SICK WLL180T-P435 is a high-performance glass and plastic fibre optic sensor designed for industrial automation and control applications. It features a PNP output and offers IP50 ingress protection, making it suitable for environments exposed to dust and mild contamination.

This model operates at a 24V dc supply voltage and boasts an extremely fast response time of just 16 microseconds. The sensor supports sensing distances of up to 20 meters using a through-beam system and 1,400 mm in proximity system mode, providing flexibility for various detection tasks.

Equipped with an LED light source, cable terminal type, and a robust plastic housing, the WLL180T-P435 supports reliable optical detection even under challenging conditions such as dust, spray, or mist. Its operating temperature range from -25°C to 55°C ensures stable performance in industrial settings.

The sensor includes two 4-digit digital displays that allow intuitive visualization of programming steps, status, and actual versus target values. It supports bus-compatible anti-interference functionality that enables multiple sensors to be networked with settings replication, preventing cross-talk.

Additional programmable features such as adjustable hysteresis and time delays enable precise tuning to specific applications, including detection of tiny or transparent objects. The rotatable display screen and high-resolution signal processing add to its ease of use and reliability.

Typical use cases include detecting printed circuit boards, measuring liquid levels in bottles, log detection and classification, presence checking in injection molding tools, monitoring gripper positions, and safe detection in pick-up positions of solar cells.

Selectable response time up to 16 microseconds. High sensing range up to 20 meters through-beam and 1,400 mm proximity. Bus-compatible anti-interference and replicated settings across sensors. 2 x 4-digit displays for easy programming and status monitoring.

Adjustable hysteresis and programmable time delays for flexibility. Robust plastic housing for durability. Operating temperature range from -25°C to 55°C. Fast switching frequency of 31.2 kHz. CE and UL certified for industrial safety and quality compliance.
