Wenglor TO22PB3 Reflex Sensor Energetic | 200mm Range

The Wenglor TO22PB3 Reflex Sensor Energetic is a high-performance optical sensing solution designed for reliable object detection in various industrial automation environments. Utilizing advanced red light technology, this sensor offers a functional range of up to 200 mm, ensuring accurate switching even in space-constrained installations.

Description

The Wenglor TO22PB3 Reflex Sensor Energetic operates on the energetic scanning principle, where the sensor identifies objects by evaluating the light reflected directly back from the target’s surface. This model is specifically optimized for short-range detection, capable of reaching up to 200 mm. The visible red light source acts as a significant advantage during installation, allowing engineers to align and calibrate the sensor quickly and accurately without specialized diagnostic tools.

Performance and reliability are central to the design of the Wenglor TO22PB3 Reflex Sensor Energetic. With a high switching frequency of 1000 Hz and a rapid response time of 0.5 ms, it handles fast-moving parts with consistent precision. The sensor is built to withstand harsh industrial conditions, featuring full encapsulation and an operating temperature range of -40 to 60 °C. To ensure maximum operational safety, it includes integrated protection against short circuits and reverse polarity, boasting an exceptional service life of up to 100,000 hours.
