Wenglor ZD200PCVT3 Through Beam Sensor | 200m Long Range

The Wenglor ZD200PCVT3 Through Beam Sensor is an elite long-range receiver designed for the most challenging object detection tasks in expansive industrial spaces. Engineered to receive signals at a staggering distance of up to 200,000 mm, this sensor provides an unbreakable optical barrier for large-scale transit paths and heavy-duty machinery.

Description

The Wenglor ZD200PCVT3 Through Beam Sensor functions as the specialized receiver unit in an ultra-long-range sensing system. By establishing a direct optical link with a compatible high-power emitter, it creates a stable detection field spanning up to 200 meters. The system is specifically optimized to handle extreme conditions; the receiver’s high sensitivity combined with the transmitter’s high-intensity red light allows the beam to penetrate airborne contaminants that would typically incapacitate standard optical sensors.

Precision is maintained over these vast distances through a narrow 3-degree opening angle, ensuring the beam energy is concentrated and accurately detected. This receiver features a PNP switching output, making it highly compatible with modern industrial control systems. Beyond its performance, the ZD200PCVT3 is built for industrial endurance. Housed in a rugged plastic casing with an IP67 protection rating, it is both dust-tight and water-resistant. Operating reliably within a wide temperature range of -25 °C up to 60 °C, it delivers consistent results in both indoor logistics hubs and exposed outdoor industrial facilities.
