A WTB4-3P2162 is an optical sensor classified under Photoelectric, Industrial. This device detects objects being conveyed by detecting object status and the changes in load movement. It is mainly used in factory automation and industrial equipment as it is able to work in environments such as welds and slags and hazardous location applications. This sensor is very versatile and is especially useful for applications where the environment is tough or potentially hazardous.

The device is composed of a main unit and an amplifier. The main unit is equipped with an infrared light-emitting diode (LED) and a photo detector, which detects the reflected light. The amplifier reads the information at an analog level and converts it into an output signal, such as PNP or NPN type. This output signal can then be used to trigger an appropriate response, such as switching on a light or motor. Additional features such as peak hold or forced response make it possible for WTB4-3P2162 to work in complex environments.

Its working principle is based on infrared light reflection. The emitting LED produces infrared light which is reflected on the detected object. The photo detector will catch the changes and generate an electrical signal which will be sent to the pre-amplifier to further amplify the signal. This is then filtered, amplified and converted to PNP or NPN type to provide a useful output signal for the automation control, signaling or other specified applications. The device can detect any objects within its sensing range, hence making it suitable for various industrial and factory automation applications.

Applications of the WTB4-3P2162 include detection of liquid and powder level in production lines and controlling on-off switching of production lines. It is also used in level and load sensing in storage conveyors, and motion detection in robotic arms. The device can also be used for safety purposes in the presence of hazardous locations.

The WTB4-3P2162 optical sensor is a highly versatile device that allows for detection of objects in harsh environments. Its wide range of applications makes it suitable for use in factory and industrial automation control, signaling and safety applications. Its working principle is based on the infrared light reflection to detect objects and provide useful output signals for control and automation purposes.
