Introduction:

The WLG4S-3 is a retroreflective sensor that successfully recognizes transparent objects and is housed in a thin enclosure. It is possible to correctly identify even tiny gaps between objects, incredibly transparent thin films, vials with flow markings, and severe lens flaws. The programming push button must be pressed once to modify the sensor. Even when employing the tiniest reflectors, the PINPOINT LED’s small yet powerful light spot makes alignment quick and simple. Variants that have IO-Link also offer continuous diagnostic data.

  • Optics using a single lens for autocollimation
  • straightforward configuration using a cable, push button, or IO-Link

When employing small reflectors, using LED technology with a focused, well-defined light spot that is small and highly visible allows for levels of high reserve values. Thanks to IO-Link, flexible configuration, monitoring, sophisticated diagnostics, and sensor display are possible.

  • The best possible detection of any transparent item
  • Reduced downtime because of ongoing threshold adaptation that takes into account the impacts of temperature, dust, and drift as well as shifting environmental circumstances
  • A bright light spot that is well-defined and highly visible allows for quick and precise alignment.
  • Easy access to data from the PLC is provided through IO-Link.
  • Simple and quick configuration
  • Utilizing function blocks, integration is quick and simple.
  • Simple device identification and replacement

The Sick WLG4S-3 is a compact housing-encased retro reflective sensor that can detect translucent objects with accuracy. It is possible to accurately identify even a little gap between the item, a thin film that is incredibly transparent, a vial with a flow mark, and a major lens flaw. Even when utilizing the tiniest reflector, the locator LED’s tiny yet powerful light spot enables quick and simple alignment.
