SICK WL12G-3P2582P04 Photoelectric Switch Sensor (Order No. 1059645)
1. Product Overview
The SICK WL12G-3P2582P04 is a polarized retro-reflective photoelectric sensor from the W12 series, specifically engineered for reliable detection of transparent objects and standard targets in industrial automation. With a maximum switching distance of 3 m, PNP normally open (NO) output, and compact square zinc die-cast housing, it excels in packaging, material handling, and assembly line applications requiring precise, long-range object identification. The sensor integrates a polarization filter and infrared LED source (850 nm) to minimize false triggers from ambient light and reflective backgrounds, while its IP66/IP67 rating ensures durability in harsh industrial settings with dust, water, and vibration exposure. It operates on 10–30V DC power, supports quick setup via a teach-in button, and features a 5-pin M12 connector for seamless integration into automated systems.
2. Main Functions
| Function | Detailed Description |
|---|---|
| Polarized Retro-Reflective Detection | Uses a polarization filter to distinguish target reflections from background glare, enabling stable detection of transparent objects (e.g., PET bottles, films) and standard materials. |
| PNP Digital Output | Delivers a switched PNP NO signal (max 100 mA) to interface with PLCs, relays, or control systems, facilitating real-time process automation. |
| Teach-In Configuration | Single teach-in button allows quick calibration of switching thresholds, reducing setup time and operational complexity. |
| Transparent Object Detection | Specialized optics and polarization technology reliably detect low-reflectivity transparent targets, minimizing false negatives in packaging and bottling lines. |
| Robust Environmental Operation | IP66/IP67-rated housing and zinc die-cast construction withstand dust, water jets, and vibration, ensuring consistent performance in demanding industrial environments. |
| Ambient Light Immunity | Resists up to 40,000 lx of ambient light, preventing interference from factory lighting or sunlight. |
| Overload & Short-Circuit Protection | Built-in circuitry safeguards the sensor and connected devices from electrical damage, enhancing system reliability. |
3. Technical Features
- Polarization Filter Technology: Eliminates background reflection interference, ensuring accurate target detection even with highly reflective surfaces or transparent materials.
- Infrared LED Light Source: 850 nm wavelength with a Ø25 mm spot size at 1.5 m provides uniform coverage and reliable detection of small or large targets.
- Compact & Durable Design: Zinc die-cast housing offers superior impact and vibration resistance, while IP66/IP67 protection supports high-pressure cleaning and harsh environmental conditions.
- Teach-In Calibration: Single-button setup allows on-site adjustment of switching points, adapting to varying target reflectivity and installation distances.
- Wide Power Compatibility: 10–30V DC operating voltage ensures compatibility with standard industrial power systems, enabling flexible integration.
- Fast Response & High Switching Frequency: 333 μs response time and 1,500 Hz switching frequency (1:1 duty cycle) support high-speed object detection in dynamic production lines.
- Temperature Resilience: Operates from -40°C to +60°C, suitable for extreme industrial temperature ranges without performance degradation.
- 5-Pin M12 Connectivity: Lockable M12 connector ensures secure, tool-free installation and replacement, reducing downtime during maintenance.
