About Wenglor Optical and Inductive Sensors

Optical sensing is chosen by how the light path is arranged, and each arrangement has a different failure mode. A diffuse sensor sees light returned from the target itself, so range depends on the colour and finish of the object and a dark matt surface reads far shorter than a white one. A retro-reflective sensor works against a dedicated reflector and gives a stable long range, with polarising filter versions used where the target itself is shiny enough to be mistaken for the reflector. A through-beam pair separates emitter and receiver and gives the longest range and the highest immunity to contamination, at the cost of wiring both sides. Laser sensors narrow the spot for small parts and edges, and distance and profile sensors return a measured value rather than a switched output, used for height, thickness and position checks. Fibre amplifiers put the electronics away from a hot or tight location. Inductive sensors detect metal only, with shielded versions for flush mounting and reduced-factor characteristics on non-ferrous targets.

Wenglor Optical and Inductive Sensors in Saudi Arabia

These sensors are fitted on production machinery rather than on process plant. Food and beverage lines around Riyadh, Jeddah and Al Kharj use them for bottle and can detection, label presence, fill level checking and reject gating. Packaging, carton and shrink-wrap machines use them for registration marks and web edge control. Plastics, paper converting, printing and woodworking plants use laser and fibre sensors for small part and edge detection. Logistics and warehouse conveyors in the distribution centres around the main cities use them for parcel presence and gap control. Light curtains guard access to presses, robot cells and packaging machinery. The main local factor is contamination: dust, sugar and product residue on the lens is the most common cause of intermittent detection, which is why through-beam and retro-reflective arrangements with generous excess gain are preferred over marginal diffuse installations in dusty or washdown environments.

Ordering and lead time

Quote the Wenglor type number as printed on the sensor body, for example P1KL002 or L1FL66VB, since the code carries the optical principle, range, output and connection. Where the number is unavailable, state the sensing principle you need, the required range, the target material colour and finish, the housing size and mounting arrangement, the output as PNP or NPN and normally open or normally closed, the supply voltage and the connection type as cable or M12. For reflective sensors say whether a reflector is required, as it is a separate item. For light curtains give the protected height, the resolution required by the risk assessment and the safety level, and note that a safety device must be selected against that assessment. Items are sourced to order with a typical lead time of three weeks and delivered duty-paid to site.
