Optical Sensors - Photo Detectors - Logic Output

Photo detectors are an important type of optical sensors, which receive and detect light from the environment and provide an electrical output signal. The OPL800 logic output sensor, specifically, is a high-performance type of photo detector that has a wide range applications in industrial, commercial and security sectors.

Applications of the OPL800 Sensor

The OPL800 sensor is designed for industrial applications, as it can detect large wheel objects such as pallets or spheres that have diameters up to 100mm. It is also used to detect metal objects such as steel rods, iron pipes and tubes, wire rope, and even rust-free materials. In addition, the OPL800 also has a wide range of applications in retail, security and safety, such as detecting packages, controlling the flow of metal objects, and ensuring product safety. This sensor can also be used in healthcare applications for the detection of abnormal conditions.

Working Principle of the OPL800

The OPL800 sensor is a type of photo detector, specifically a reflection-type photo detector. The sensor consists of two diodes - a transmitter LED and a receiver LED. The transmitter LED emits light pulses, which is then reflected off an object. Upon reflection, the object reflects back the light pulses, which is then detected by the receiver LED.

The sensor is specifically designed to detect changes in the position of an object in its proximity. When an object is detected by the receiver LED, the electrical output of the sensor is set to a ‘High’ level, thus providing the ON signal. The output signal remains at a High level until the object is no longer detected. This is how the OPL800 sensor provides logic output signals, as its output is either High or Low.

Advantages of OPL800 Photo Detector

The OPL800 photo detector has many advantages over traditional photo sensors, as it offers a higher sensing distance, higher resolution, and an excellent signal-to-noise ratio. The sensor also has a fast response time, allowing for rapid data transmission and feedback systems.

Furthermore, the OPL800 is designed for reliable operation in extreme temperatures and environments, and resists ESD (electrostatic discharge) up to 4KV. The sensor is also dust-, dirt-, and water-proof, making it ideally suited for rugged industrial or outdoor applications.

Conclusion

The OPL800 photo detector is an ideal solution for industrial, commercial, and security applications, as it offers a wide range of advantages over traditional photo sensors. It is also designed for reliable performance in extreme temperatures and environments, and offers a fast response time and a high resolution.
