SICK Photoelectric Sensor WLG4S-3P3432V for Washdown Detection

The SICK photoelectric sensor WLG4S-3P3432V is a W4 series retro-reflective sensor for reliable object detection in compact industrial machines. It uses visible red PinPoint LED light and supports detection ranges up to 5 m. Therefore, it fits packaging lines, conveyor systems, washdown zones, and transparent object detection tasks.

WLG4S-3P3432V carries SICK part number 1046449. It uses autocollimation coaxial optics and includes a polarization filter. In addition, the sensor supports teach-in adjustment, so technicians can set it quickly during installation or replacement. Its PNP output and light/dark switching function help it integrate with common PLC input circuits.

Key Sensor Specifications

This SICK photoelectric sensor uses a stainless steel V4A housing, which supports hygienic and washdown applications. Also, the IP66, IP67, IP68, and IP69K enclosure ratings help protect the device in wet or demanding environments. The fast response time below 0.5 ms supports stable detection in high-speed automation.
