The Sick WF5-60B416 is a high-performance fork sensor renowned for its precision and reliability in industrial applications. This sensor utilises an optical detection principle with an infrared LED light source, ensuring accurate detection of objects as small as 0.2 mm. With dimensions of 10 mm x 35 mm x 74 mm and a fork width of 5 mm, it is compact yet robust, making it ideal for tight spaces where precise object detection is crucial.
Designed to operate within a voltage range of 10 V DC to 30 V DC, the WF5-60B416 offers flexibility in various power environments. It features dual output modes (PNP/NPN), allowing for seamless integration into different control systems. The sensor's response time is impressively quick at 100 µs, with a switching frequency of up to 10 kHz, facilitating high-speed operations.
The WF5-60B416 is built to withstand challenging industrial conditions, boasting an IP65 rating for dust and water resistance. Its housing is made of durable metal and aluminium, ensuring longevity and resistance to environmental factors. This sensor is an excellent choice for businesses looking to enhance operational efficiency and precision in automated processes.

Thumbs up to Rob for helping out with an urgent requirement we had on a Friday afternoon. The part we wanted was over in Europe and Rob went out of his way to get it ordered and on site here for the following Tuesday.City Bearings
Absolutely fantastic service. Rob was very helpful. Great communication. Requested part was shipped in no time.Konrad Eliaszuk
Extremely Helpful. Shipped me a replacement unit next day and i was up and running within 24 hours. Replacement new from machinery manufacturers was on a 7 day lead time.Sean Conlin
Found the part we needed at the best price. Spoke to Rob to make sure the part was actually in stock, as many companies don't actually have the part available to ship. It was in stock ready and the part was checked and shipped and received within a couple of days from their German stock. Would definitely use again and recommend.Chris Sentance
