The Wenglor YO99VD3 Through Beam Sensor operates as the emitting half of a dual-component sensing system. By utilizing a separate emitter and receiver configuration, this through-beam technology provides the highest possible resistance to environmental interference. Unlike standard reflex sensors, the YO99VD3 maintains its signal integrity even in the presence of dust, steam, or ambient light, making it a reliable choice for challenging industrial settings.
Technical precision is at the heart of this sensor’s design. It features a lightning-fast switching frequency of 2,000 Hz and a response time of 250 µs, allowing it to track rapidly moving parts on high-speed production lines without error. For advanced system integration, the built-in RS-232 interface enables users to parameterize the sensor digitally, including the adjustment of on-delay and off-delay settings from 0 to 5 seconds. Its durability is guaranteed by a high-grade PBT and V2A stainless steel housing, which is fully encapsulated to achieve an IP67 protection rating, ensuring resilience against moisture and dust.
The Wenglor YO99VD3 Through Beam Sensor is a high-performance industrial sensing solution engineered for long-distance detection and uncompromising reliability. As a specialized emitter component, it projects a powerful red light beam across distances of up to 60,000 mm, ensuring stable operation even in the most expansive factory layouts.
