Description
Product Overview
The WL12G is a 100% original SICK diffuse reflective photoelectric sensor. This diffuse reflective photoelectric sensor detects objects directly without a reflector – the object itself reflects the emitted light back to the receiver. Background suppression versions measure distance by angle, reliably ignoring objects beyond the set sensing range.
Key Features
- No reflector required – the object itself is detected
- Background suppression ignores objects behind the sensing range
- Adjustable sensing distance for flexible application setup
- Compact housing fits tight machine spaces
- Visible red light or laser version for precise alignment
- PNP/NPN output with short-circuit protection
