The SICK WS/WE45-P260 is a through-beam photoelectric sensor designed for reliable object detection over long distances. Comprising a separate emitter (WS45-D260) and receiver (WE45-P260), this sensor pair is capable of detecting objects up to 350 meters away, making it ideal for various industrial applications.

Key Features:

• Sensing Range: 0 to 300 meters (typical), with a maximum range of 350 meters.

• Light Source: Infrared LED with an average service life of 100,000 hours at 25 °C.

• Response Time: ≤ 500 µs, supporting a switching frequency of up to 1,000 Hz.

• Adjustable Time Functions: Features switch-on delay, off delay, and ON and OFF delay, adjustable via a time delay selector switch (0.015 s to 12 s).

• Rugged Construction: Housed in a durable metal casing with an IP67 enclosure rating, suitable for harsh industrial environments.

Technical Specifications:

• Dimensions (W × H × D): 60 mm × 105 mm × 105 mm.

• Supply Voltage: 10 V DC to 60 V DC.

• Power Consumption: 50 mA (emitter and receiver, without load).

• Output: PNP switching output with complementary function; maximum output current ≤ 200 mA.

• Connection: Terminal connection with PG13.5, 6-pin.

• Operating Temperature: –25 °C to +55 °C.
