WSO16P, WSO16G: Align the sender with the receiver. Select the position so that the
red emitted light beam hits the receiver. Tip: Use white paper or a reflector as an
alignment aid. The sender must have a clear view of the receiver, with no object in the
path of the beam
[figure
5]. You must ensure that the optical openings (front screens)
of the sensors are completely clear.
WSO16I: Align the sender with the receiver. Select the position so that the infrared light
(not visible) hits the receiver. The correct alignment can only be detected via the LEDs
figure
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.

WSE16 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.
Note application conditions: Adjust distance between sender and receiver with the
associated diagram
[see table
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
18] (x = sensing range, y = operating reserve).
