70156-2905

Optical sensors are devices that convert light, infrared or visible, into an electrical signal. The 70156-2905 Photoelectric, industrial sensor, is used to detect distant objects, or detect opaque objects passing between an infrared source and receiver. The 70156-2905 is a reliable, ruggedly built industrial grade optical sensor.

The 70156-2905 operates on the principle of a transmissive, photometric, photoelectric detector. In this type of detector, an infrared source (LED) and a receiver diode are mounted in a housing so that the receivers view is obstructed when an object passes between the two. The transmission of infrared radiation is prevented when an object is in the path, and the electrical output signal is reduced or changed when the object is not present.

The 70156-2905 has many advantages that contribute to its reliability and accuracy. One of the most important features of the 70156-2905 is its field of view. The field of view on the sensor is 180 degrees, so it can detect objects from any direction. This feature eliminates the problem of "blind spots" that can occur with other optical sensors.

The 70156-2905\'s photoelectric detector has greater sensitivity than other optical sensors. This allows the 70156-2905 to detect distant objects with greater accuracy and reliability. The 70156-2905 also has a wide temperature range; it can operate in temperatures from -20°C to +50°C, making it suitable for industrial applications.

Another advantage of the 70156-2905 is its size. Its housing is lightweight and compact, making it easy to install and maintain. The sensor is also powered by a low voltage of 4-30V, which eliminates the need for special wiring or power supplies.

The 70156-2905 is ideal for industrial applications such as detecting moving objects, monitoring production lines, and detecting defects in a production process. The sensor can be adjusted for a wide range of applications, including distance, intensity, and the type of workpiece being monitored. This makes the 70156-2905 a highly versatile and reliable sensor.

In summary, the 70156-2905 Photoelectric, Industrial Sensor is a reliable, ruggedly built industrial grade optical sensor that provides improved sensitivity, a wide angle of view, a wide temperature range, and a low voltage power requirement. It is ideal for industrial applications and can be adjusted to suit a wide variety of requirements, making it a versatile and reliable sensor for any industrial application.
