## ee W 260 Photoelectric switches |. Photoelectric proximity switches, W 260: Standard photoelectric BGS ll Photoelectric switch series for a broad range proximity switches, energetic tl Photoelectric of applications 

Photoelectric proximity switches, BGS Photoelectric proximity switches, energetic Photoelectric reflex switches 

I universal voltage 12...24 V DC and 24...240 V AC with potential-free relay contact (SPDT) or, alternatively, adjustable time delay. 

Through-beam photoelectric switches hal Photoelectric switches with fibre-optic cable Proximity mode Photoelectric ~~SAT~~ switches with fibre-optic cable Through-beam mode 

The W 260 series with its impressive scanning ranges and Tfeatures has been specially designed for a wide variety of different applications. The sensors, through-beam photoelectric switches, energetic photoelectric proximity switches, and photoelectric reflex switches with background suppression are contained in robust plastic housings. Handling is simple and user-friendly. Two supply voltages are available: 

- I low voltage 10...30 V DC with PNP or NPN transistor switching output and test input and 

A variety of features make these sensors particularly operatorfriendly. These include visible red transmitted light used as an alignment aid, or the simple and flexible connection system, glass/stainless steel fibre-optic cables for harsh operating conditions in confined environments. All of these benefits open up applications far beyond handling/warehousing systems, the packaging industry and wood working. All device variants have been granted UL and CSA approval. 

One last highlight: the W 260 complies with EN 50081-1 (interference radiation). This makes it the perfect sensor solution for door and gate control systems in underground garages and for use in residential blocks or hotels.
