the sensor.
The device shall be supplied from an isolating transformer having a secondary overcur‐
rent protective device that complies with UL 248 to be installed in the field rated either:
a)
max 5 amps for voltages 0 ~ 20 V (0 ~ 28.3 V peak), or
b)
100 / Vp for voltages of 20 ~ 30 V (28.3 ~ 42.4 V peak).
Alternatively, they can be supplied from a Class 2 power supply.
UL Environmental Rating: Enclosure type 1
The WLD16 is an opto-electronic photoelectric retro-reflective sensor (referred to as
"sensor" in the following) for the optical, non-contact detection of objects, animals, and
persons. A reflector is required for it to function. If the product is used for any other
purpose or modified in any way, any warranty claim against SICK AG shall become void.
