3 Correct use
The WT34 is an opto-electronic photoelectric proximity sensor (referred to as "sensor" in
the following) for the optical, non-contact detection of objects, animals, and persons. If
the product is used for any other purpose or modified in any way, any warranty claim
against SICK AG shall become void.

5 Mounting
Mount the sensor using a suitable mounting bracket (see the SICK range of acces‐
sories).
Note the sensor’s maximum permissible tightening torque of 2 Nm.
Note the preferred direction of the object relative to the sensor, cf. see "Dimensional
drawing", page 15.
6 Electrical installation
The sensors must be connected in a voltage-free state. The following information must
be observed, depending on the connection type:
– Plug connection: note pin assignment: when the cover is open, the male connector
can be swiveled horizontally and vertically.
– Terminal connection: note the permissible cable diameter of 5 to 10 mm. When
the cover is open, the M16 fitting can be swiveled horizontally and vertically.
Unscrew the M16 fitting and remove sealing plug. Lead voltage-free supply cable
through and connect sensor in accordance with table 2 and table 4. Retighten
M16 fitting with seal so that the IP enclosure rating of the device is ensured.
Figure 1: Opening the sensor Figure 2: Electrical connection
Only apply voltage/switch on the power supply once all electrical connections have
been established.

7 Additional functions
Alarm
Alarm output: the sensor (WT34-Vxxx) features a pre-failure notification output (“Alarm”
in connection diagram [see "WT34-Bxxx, WT34-Vxxx", page 7]), which issues a notifica‐
tion if the sensor is only ready for operation to a limited extent. The LED indicator
flashes in this case. Possible causes: sensor is contaminated, sensor is out of align‐
ment. In the good state: LOW (0), if excessively contaminated HIGH (1).

ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONS 7

Subject to change without notice 9
Test input
Test input: the WT34-B / -V sensors feature a test input (“TI” or “Test” on the connec‐
tion diagram [see "WT34-Bxxx, WT34-Vxxx", page 7 and see table 7]), which can be
used to switch the sender off and, therefore, check that the sensor is functioning cor‐
rectly: if female cable connectors with LED indicators are used, you have to ensure that
the TI is assigned accordingly.
If an object is detected, activate the test input (see the connection diagram [see
"WT34-Bxxx, WT34-Vxxx", page 7 and see table 7], PNP: TE → M). The send LED is shut
down or no object being detected is simulated. Use the following table to check the
function. If the switching output fails to behave in accordance with the following table,
check the application conditions. See section Fault diagnosis.

8 Commissioning
1Alignment
WT34-Xx4x, -Xx5x: align sensor on object. Select the position so that the red emitted light
beam hits the center of the object. You must ensure that the optical opening (front screen)
of the sensor is completely clear [see figure 3 and figure 4].
WT34-Xx1x, -Xx2x: align sensor on object. Select the position so that the infrared light (not
visible) hits the center of the object. The correct alignment can only be detected via the
LED indicators. See figure 3 and figure 4. You must ensure that the optical opening (front
screen) of the sensor is completely clear.
