Wenglor SA250-P24 Through-Beam Sensor – Emitter for LV250

The Wenglor SA250-P24 Through-Beam Sensor is a high-performance infrared emitter specifically engineered to work in seamless combination with the LV250 controller. Designed for maximum flexibility, these sensors can be freely positioned to suit your specific spatial requirements while maintaining a large working range.

Description

The Wenglor SA250-P24 Through-Beam Sensor operates as a dedicated emitter utilizing infrared light technology. Its primary advantage is its ability to maintain a consistent signal through airborne particles, dust, and moisture, making it a “workhorse” for heavy-duty industrial applications. When paired with the LV250 controller, this sensor system provides an intelligent detection solution that is immune to interactive influence from other nearby optical devices.

Constructed with professional-grade materials, the sensor features a nickel-plated brass housing that is fully encapsulated. This design achieves an IP67 degree of protection, ensuring the internal electronics are completely shielded from liquid ingress and physical debris. Furthermore, the SA250-P24 is built for longevity, boasting a service life of 100,000 hours at standard temperatures, which significantly reduces the total cost of ownership and maintenance downtime.
