WSE2S-2E3130

Optical Sensors - Photoelectric, Industrial

The WSE2S-2E3130 is an optical sensor for use in industrial control and monitoring systems. It is a photoelectric-type sensor, which uses reflected light to detect objects and changes in objects. It can be used to detect changes in environment, distances, levels, and more. The WSE2S-2E3130 is a highly accurate and reliable sensor that is easy to use and can be programmed to perform any number of tasks.

Application Field

The WSE2S-2E3130 can be found in a wide range of application areas, including manufacturing, industrial automation, and food processing. It can be used as part of a system to detect the presence and/or absence of objects, as well as to control automated processes in areas such as production lines, conveyor systems, and packaging lines. It is also used for monitoring and controlling applications, such as materials handling and storage, and for detecting the levels of liquids or gases in reservoirs, tanks, and pipelines.

The WSE2S-2E3130 can also be used for safety applications, such as in the prevention of accidents in the operation of machinery and equipment. It can be used to detect the presence of dangerous objects or hazardous conditions and to alert workers. Additionally, it can be used to control the access, egress, and movement of personnel in hazardous and restricted areas.

Working Principle

The WSE2S-2E3130 works via a process known as photoelectric conversion. This process involves the conversion of light into an electrical signal, which is then used to measure distance or level. The light is received by a transmitter and is then reflected back from the object (or environment) to a receiver. The time taken for the signal to travel from the transmitter to the receiver is then measured and used to calculate the distance or level.

The transmitter and receiver of the WSE2S-2E3130 can be configured for one of four modes: regular reflector mode, diffuse reflector mode, proximity switch mode, and fixed distance mode. In all modes, the transmitter and receiver must be configured for the same mode; otherwise, the device will not work properly. The reflector mode is used when the light will reflect off an object, such as a person or a machine part. The diffuse reflector mode is mainly used for the detection of environmental conditions, such as temperature, humidity, or vibration. The proximity switch mode is mainly used to detect the presence of an object, while the fixed distance mode is used to detect a fixed distance between two objects.

In addition to the above modes, the WSE2S-2E3130 can also be configured for other custom applications, depending on the end user’s requirements, such as for controlling the opening and closing of doors and gates, or for controlling the lifting of materials in warehouses and factories.
