The Sick WL24-2X430 is a compact photoelectric sensor designed for precision and reliability in industrial environments. This robust sensor is housed in a durable metal casing with zinc die-casting, ensuring it can withstand the rigours of tough industrial settings. It features a polarising filter and operates using visible red light, which enhances detection capabilities and accuracy.
With a switching frequency of 50 Hz and a quick response time of less than or equal to 10 ms, the WL24-2X430 is capable of high-speed operations, making it suitable for applications where timing is critical. The sensor offers a maximum sensing range of up to 22 meters when used with the specified reflector, providing flexibility in installation and use.
Safety is a key aspect of this sensor's design, as evidenced by its ATEX and IECEx certifications, which make it suitable for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. The WL24-2X430 operates within a voltage range of 5 V DC to 15.5 V DC and features NAMUR switching output, ensuring compatibility with a variety of control systems.
The IP67 protection rating signifies that the sensor is dust-tight and can handle temporary immersion in water, making it an excellent choice for applications that may involve exposure to the elements or require regular washdowns.
This sensor is also designed with ease of use in mind, featuring an M12 connector for straightforward electrical connection and a potentiometer for simple adjustments. Its compact size and block shape allow for convenient integration into a wide range of industrial setups.
Overall, the Sick WL24-2X430 is a versatile and reliable choice for those seeking a high-quality photoelectric sensor for demanding industrial applications.

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
Found the component i was looking for ad a great price. Great support from the staff as I was paying using a wire transfer. - Quick delivery and very good packaging.Adriano Tiberi
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
