SICK WTV4FE-8416A120A00 1123755 Photoelectric Proximity Sensor PNP/NPN Push‑Pull 50mm

SICK WTV4FE-8416A120A00 (1123755) is a miniature photoelectric proximity sensor with background suppression and V‑optics technology for precise object detection. The PinPoint LED light source produces a visible red rectangular light spot (0.5 mm × 1.9 mm at 30 mm). Push‑pull output (PNP/NPN compatible) with selectable light/dark switching. 2 mm to 50 mm adjustable sensing range. 182 mm cable with M12 4‑pin male connector (IP66/IP67). IP66/IP67 housing (VISTAL®/plastic), IO‑Link V1.1 for parameter setting and Smart Tasks. BluePilot adjustment and multi‑colour LED indicators simplify setup. Suitable for transparent objects, glossy or highly reflective surfaces, and uneven materials in automated production lines, packaging, and material handling.
