70156-2788

Optical sensors are a special type of sensors that utilize light for detection and measurement. One example of this is the 70156-2788, an industrial photoelectric sensor. It can be used to detect presence, absence, motion, direction, direction, location, speed, and/or size depending on the application. As a result, it has a range of Industrial applications, such as production automation, packaging, material handling, and process control. It can also be used to detect people or objects in vehicular or other automated systems.

The 70156-2788 has a built-in photoelectric switch that is incredibly sensitive to light, making it highly reliable in various industrial applications. It works with both reflective and diffuse-mode photoelectric sensing. In reflective mode, an infrared emitting diode generates a light beam which is reflected by the object being sensed. When the light beam is interrupted by the object, it is detected by the phototransistor and control signals are generated.

In diffuse-mode sensing, the photoelectric switch is placed directly on the object being sensed. It then emits an infrared light which bounces off the object and measures its distance. With this type of setup, it\'s possible to detect the movement, direction, location, and size of an object.

The 70156-2788 is designed to be used in high-speed automated systems. It can handle a wide range of operating temperatures and can be mounted either horizontally or vertically. Additionally, it is easily integrated into new or existing production lines, thanks to its universal 3-wire connection and its rugged stainless steel construction.

With its high precision, reliability, and efficiency, the 70156-2788 is an essential component for Industrial automation applications. It allows for precise and automated detection of objects and movement, improving process control and production accuracy. Furthermore, its adjustable logic and delay settings make it perfect for a wide range of Industrial applications.
