The SICK WL27-3P2430 is a retro-reflective photoelectric sensor built for industrial automation, capable of detecting objects—including transparent and reflective materials—on conveyors, bottling lines, and packaging systems. It delivers reliable object detection in dusty, vibrating environments and under ambient light interference, with a sensing range up to approximately 4–5 m when used with a reflector. Key specifications include a PNP switching output with light/dark switching selectable, 10–30 V DC supply, <1 ms response time, M12 connection, IP67 protection, and an industrial-grade plastic housing rated for -25°C to +55°C. Common replacements include SICK WL27-3P2402S18 and WL27-3P2461.
