Optical Sensors – Photoelectric, Industrial
Optical sensors are devices that measure light or detect its presence. Depending on the application, they may use visible or non-visible light, and may be activated by light intensity or presence; or may respond to specific frequencies or wavelengths.
70156-3847 Application Field And Working Principle
The 70156-3847 optical sensor is an industrial class model and can be used for a variety of applications. It has a number of features that make it suitable for industrial applications, including a resistance to shock and vibration, strong insulation, and a wide range of temperature tolerance.
The 70156-3847 operates on a simple principle: it consists of a photocell, which is the sensing element, and an infrared LED. The LED sends out infrared light in all directions, and the photocell is configured to detect infrared light within a certain range and react accordingly.
When the light from the LED is reflected off something that is within the range of the photocell, the cell sends a signal to the sensor, which triggers an action. The action could be as simple as a light turning on, or it could be part of a larger system such as an alarm system.
The 70156-3847 is also designed to detect objects that are smaller than the range of its sensing element, meaning it can be used to detect small objects with a high level of accuracy. It is also capable of detecting multiple objects at once, making it ideal for use in industrial applications where multiple objects need to be monitored or detected.
The 70156-3847 is extremely reliable and robust, thanks to its strong insulation. It can operate in temperatures ranging from -40°C to +50°C and is resistant to vibrations and shocks. This makes it ideal for use in harsh environments such as factories and construction sites.
The 70156-3847 is an excellent choice for industrial applications where objects and events need to be monitored and detected. It is reliable, robust, and can withstand extreme temperatures and shocks, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
