SICK Fotoelektrický snímač, řada: W280-2 LED Pravoúhlý 4kolíkový konektor, výstup: PnP Jednocestný IP67, IP66

SICK W280-2 Series Photoelectric Sensor, IP67, 30V DC Maximum DC Voltage - WSE280-2P2431

This photoelectric sensor detects objects using a through-beam optical arrangement and is intended for industrial automation environments. It is housed in a Compact plastic enclosure designed for fixed mounting with a bracket and connects via a 4-pin M12 interface. The device operates on low-voltage DC supplies and employs an LED light source for target detection in routine sensing tasks.

Features and Benefits:

• Response time 500μs enables fast object detection and cycle rates
  Output stage configured as PNP simplifies sourcing signal integration
  Rated to 30VDC for compatibility with common control systems
  IP66 and IP67 protection levels permit use in wet or dusty conditions
  Operates between -25°C and 55°C for varied temperature environments

Applications

• Suitable for conveyor line object presence detection in manufacturing
  Ideal for material handling systems requiring long-range sensing
  Used for end-of-arm tooling feedback in robotic pick-and-place
  Can be used for level detection across chutes and hoppers
  Suitable for gating or safety monitoring in assembly stations

How is the sensor connected to a control system?

It uses a four-pin M12 connector providing a standardised Interface for power and PNP switching output to PLC inputs.

What standards or electromagnetic requirements does it meet?

The device conforms to EMC requirements specified under EN 60947-5-2 to address industrial electromagnetic compatibility.

Which mounting options are supported for stable alignment?

A bracket-mount configuration is provided to secure the rectangular housing and maintain precise transmitter–receiver alignment.

What is the maximum current draw during operation?

The maximum current is rated at 100mA, which should be considered when sising supply and protection components.
