Balluff BWL000F

Balluff BWL000F (BWL 4040D-R011-S49) is a compact angle-type optical sensor that serves as a robust through-beam light barrier for industrial automation. Measuring 10 x 75 x 84 mm, it offers a PNP output configurable as normally open or normally closed and is powered from 10–30 VDC. The device emits a divergent red LED beam with a light exit of Ø1.7 mm and uses a 3-pin M8x1 connector for connection. Its zinc die-cast housing is painted, and the sensing surface is glass, designed for industrial environments. This model is part of Balluff's D-series angle sensors and is CE, UKCA, and cULus certified, with WEEE compliance. The BWL000F is intended for use where an angled light barrier is required, enabling detection along slanted paths in compact installations where standard straight-barrier sensors won’t fit.
