Product Model
WL12-3P2461
Key Features
- 1High immunity to ambient light and crosstalk ensures fewer false readings and less downtime.
- 2Quick and easy setup due to highly visible PinPoint LED light spot.
- 3Rugged metal housing (optional Teflon coating) resists high-pressure cleaning and requires fewer maintenance costs.
- 4Increased reliability in harsh wash-down environments with IP66, IP67, and IP69K ratings.
- 5Easy installation using SICK accessories for seamless integration.
