wenglor's Transit Time Sensor is available with Ethernet's PROFINET protocol, as well as with EtherCAT or EtherNet/IP. The sensors can communicate actively and are known individually by the system, and thus fulfill "Industrie 4.0's" highest conformity level, namely CP44. Furthermore, the product features reliable and accurate detection of black and glossy objects, even in extremely inclined positions. In addition, the large working range of 0.1 to 10.1 meters qualifies the new product highlight for numerous complex detection and measuring tasks in modern automation systems.

The broad bandwidth of technical characteristics and functions provides this Transit Time Sensor with additional capabilities: an integrated PoE interface reduces expensive wiring effort to a minimum and the compact housing (81 x 55 x 30 mm) permits space-saving, easy installation. A built-in web server assures worldwide access to all sensor functions, for example in order to conduct location-independent diagnosis. The plug&play functions, as well as the graphic OLED display, also ensure ease of use.
