SICK (1051529) WL27-3P3402S17, MultiTask Photoelectric Sensors Reflex Array - NEW IN BOX
🛠️ Product Description
The SICK WL27‑3P3402S17 is a high‑performance retro‑reflective reflex array photoelectric sensor designed for industrial automation, packaging lines, and conveyor systems. Engineered in Waldkirch, Germany (D‑79183), this sensor provides reliable detection of edges, irregular shapes, and even transparent objects across a wide array band.
Operating on 10–30 V DC with a PNP output, the WL27‑3P3402S17 offers a sensing range up to 1.5 meters, making it ideal for material handling and automated inspection environments. This unit includes mounting hardware, ensuring fast installation and secure alignment.
A short integrated cable with a 4‑pin M12 male connector provides quick connection to control systems, while its rugged rectangular housing withstands demanding industrial conditions.
