Wenglor E1FL66VD Through Beam Sensor | 60m Range Receiver

The Wenglor E1FL66VD Through Beam Sensor receiver is a high-performance evaluation unit designed for precision object detection over expansive distances. Boasting a massive working range of up to 60,000 mm, this sensor provides a stable optical barrier that maintains signal integrity even in large-scale industrial transit paths.

Description

The Wenglor E1FL66VD Through Beam Sensor functions as the dedicated receiver unit in a long-range sensing system. By establishing a direct optical link with a compatible transmitter, it facilitates consistent presence and position monitoring over a 60-meter span. The transmitter’s high-intensity red light ensures that the system maintains a significant switching reserve, allowing the beam to effectively penetrate airborne contaminants that would typically trigger false signals in standard sensors.

This receiver is equipped with a PNP switching output and is designed for seamless integration into modern PLC architectures. The narrow opening angle of 3 degrees ensures that the energy is concentrated for clinical accuracy at maximum range. Beyond its performance, the E1FL66VD is built for longevity. Housed in a rugged ABS/PC plastic casing with an IP67 protection rating, it resists moisture and mechanical stress, operating reliably in temperatures ranging from -25 °C up to 60 °C. Whether managing logistics in a massive warehouse or monitoring feed lines in heavy industry, this sensor delivers unmatched stability.
