Need something we currently don't have available? Our sourcing team can help you find what you need
The SICK WTB12-3P2461S58 photoelectric proximity sensor from the proven W12-3 platform delivers reliable object detection in demanding industrial environments. Its visible red PinPoint LED with a line-shaped spot enables precise alignment and stable detection of small edges, perforated materials, and glossy, irregular or foil-wrapped surfaces. A compact block-style metal housing and 4-pin M12 plug make it a robust, time-saving choice for machine builders and maintenance teams in packaging, intralogistics, and assembly.
Engineered with background suppression, the sensor provides consistent switching across a 50 to 500 mm working range, even in front of moving or reflective backgrounds. Fast response time of ≤700 µs and a 750 Hz switching frequency support high-throughput applications, while the PNP output with antivalent light/dark switching integrates seamlessly with modern PLC I/O. Fine-tuning is straightforward via the 5-turn potentiometer, and the IP66/IP67/IP69K design with a PMMA front lens withstands washdown, dust, and ambient temperatures from -40 to +60 °C.
Whether modernizing existing lines or specifying new equipment, this model combines detection accuracy with installation efficiency to minimize commissioning risk and downtime, and it is backed by a 1-year warranty to give procurement teams added assurance.
