Sick WT150-P162 Photoelectric Proximity Sensor PNP electrician tool

SKU CH-1EN2-H5ZVW

A photoelectric proximity sensor with background suppression, 2 mm to 100 mm sensing range, visible red LED, PNP output, 10–30 V DC supply, IP67 enclosure, and 2 m PVC cable

  • Background suppression detects objects reliably at 2 mm to 100 mm
  • Visible red LED with 5° dispersion enables precise alignment
  • Potentiometer with 5 turns allows fine sensitivity adjustment
  • PNP output switches up to 100 mA at 1,000 Hz
  • IP67-rated ABS housing withstands –25 °C to +55 °C operation

Industrial photoelectric sensor

The Sick WT150-P162 is a background-suppression photoelectric proximity sensor designed for automation and electrical-installation tasks. Its rectangular ABS housing measures 10 mm by 28 mm by 18 mm and weighs 44 grams. A 2-metre PVC cable with four 0.18 mm² conductors provides the electrical connection. The unit is rated IP67 and operates from –25 °C to +55 °C.

Sensing range and output

The sensor detects objects from 2 mm to 100 mm using a visible red LED with an approximate 5° dispersion angle. A five-turn potentiometer allows fine adjustment of the sensing distance. The PNP output switches up to 100 mA with selectable light or dark switching via the L/D control cable. Switching frequency reaches 1,000 Hz and response time is 0.5 ms.

Supply voltage and protection

The device accepts 10 V DC to 30 V DC with a ±10 % ripple tolerance and draws 20 mA. Built-in circuit protection covers categories A through D and the sensor meets protection class II. A BEF-W150-A mounting bracket is included. UL certification is listed under file numbers NRNT2.E128350 and NRNT8.E128350.

Questions about this item

How does the 10 mm wide rectangular housing fit alongside legacy sensors on a DIN rail?

The sensor measures 10 mm wide by 28 mm high by 18 mm deep with an ABS plastic housing, so it occupies a narrow footprint that can sit beside older block-style sensors without rail adapters.

What visual indication confirms the WT150-P162 is detecting targets within its 2 mm to 100 mm background-suppression range?

The visible red LED emits a 5° spot; when the potentiometer is tuned, the output LED on the housing lights each time the PNP output switches at up to 1 000 Hz.

Does the package include the 4-wire PVC cable and mounting bracket, or must I order them separately?

The box contains the sensor with a pre-wired 2 m 4-wire PVC cable and the BEF-W150-A mounting bracket; no additional cables or brackets are required.
