SICK WSE4F, Operating Instructions Manual

Page: 26 / 170

WSO4FI: Align the sender (WSO4F) with the receiver (WEO4F). Select the position so
that the infrared light (not visible) hits the receiver. The correct alignment can only be
detected via the LEDs. See
figure 14 and table 6 . The sender must have a clear view of
the receiver, with no object in the path of the beam. You must ensure that the optical
openings (front screen) of the sensors are completely clear.

7.2 Check the application conditions:
Sensing range
WSE4F are through-beam photoelectric sensors that can be used at shorter distances,
in particular due to the large sensing range or the very high operating reserve.
Observe the application conditions: Adjust the distance between the sender and the
receiver according to the corresponding diagram [see
figure 17 and „figure X“ ] (x =
sensing range, y = operating reserve).
If several through-beam photoelectric sensors which are installed next to one another
are to be used, we recommend swapping the sender/receiver arrangement at every
second through-beam photoelectric sensor and ensuring that there is sufficient dis‐
tance between the through-beam photoelectric sensors. By doing this, mutual interfer‐
ence can be prevented [
see figure 12 ].
Check the function as described in table 6 . If the switching output fails to behave as
described in table 6 , check the application conditions.
