Photoelectric Sensor – WL12G-3P2582S10

The WL12G-3P2582S10 is a photoelectric retro-reflective sensor designed for reliable object detection in challenging environments, particularly where transparent materials like glass or plastic film are involved. With a maximum sensing range of 4 meters, this sensor utilizes autocollimation (coaxial optics) for high precision and repeatability, even without a minimum reflector distance.

Equipped with an infrared LED light source operating at 850 nm, the sensor generates a large light spot (Ø 100 mm at 3 m), making it suitable for wider-area detection. The intuitive single teach-in button enables easy setup, while AutoAdapt technology ensures consistent performance by automatically adjusting to changes in the detection environment.

This sensor is ideal for use in automated packaging lines, material handling systems, and transparent object detection tasks where consistent, interference-free operation is critical.
