Compact rectangular sensor for 10–30 V DC systems
The Sick WLL170-2N430 is a new NPN fiber-optic sensor in a rectangular ABS/PC housing measuring 10.5 mm x 35.5 mm x 83.7 mm. It operates on 10 V DC to 30 V DC supply voltage with a maximum power consumption of 30 mA. The unit weighs 70 g and meets IP66 enclosure rating for industrial environments.
Included bracket simplifies mounting on equipment
A BEF-WLL170 mounting bracket is supplied with the sensor for direct installation. The housing uses a male M8 4-pin connector for electrical connection. Circuit protection classes A, B, C and D are integrated alongside protection class III insulation.
660 nm visible red LED with potentiometer adjustment
The sensor emits visible red light at 660 nm wavelength from an LED source with approximately 65° dispersion angle. Sensing range reaches up to 4,000 mm in through-beam configuration and 160 mm in proximity mode. A 10-turn potentiometer and selectable 40 ms off-delay allow precise switching point and timing setup.

Questions about this item
What is the expected lifespan of the LED light source at 660 nm wavelength?
The sensor uses a visible red LED at 660 nm with no specified degradation rating; solid-state emitters in this class typically run for years without replacement in continuous operation.
At what ambient temperature does the IP66-rated housing reach its thermal limit during all-day operation?
The enclosure is rated for ambient temperatures up to 55 °C; sustained operation beyond this limit is not supported by the housing specification.
How much heat does the unit generate when powered continuously at 30 V DC?
At maximum supply voltage the sensor draws 30 mA, and the ABS/PC housing is rated IP66 for ambient temperatures up to 55 °C during continuous use.
