CX-413-P-Z

Optical sensors are widely used in industrial, commercial and home applications for detection and measurement of objects. CX-413-P-Z is a photoelectric switch, a type of optical sensor, most commonly used in applications where a beam of light is transmitted and sensed. Generally, the two basic photoelectric sensors that are used are those which operate on the principle of reflection and those which operated on the principle of transmission.

The CX-413-P-Z operates on the principle of reflection. This means the light beam is emitted from the source of the photoelectric switch and scattered back to the receiver when it strikes an object. The receiver then senses the presence of the incident light and sends a signal to an external controller. Depending on the type of photoelectric switch, the signal can be a simple ON/OFF output, or more complex process signals.

The CX-413-P-Z is suitable for applications requiring on/off control, such as automatic conveyor lines, sorting systems or positioning systems. It is also used in non-contact object detection applications such as counting, and in areas where response time is crucial, like in automotive and machine tools. The CX-413-P-Z has a wide sensing range from 100mm to 500mm with a high resolution of 9° (0.25mm). It has a robust construction using die-cast materials, and it is resistant to extreme temperatures, shock and vibration.

The working principle of the CX-413-P-Z involves two components – the emitter and the receiver. The emitter, which consists of a built-in LED, generates a visible red light beam, which is transmitted towards the reflective object. The light beam is then reflected off the object and diverted back towards the receiver. The receiver detects the presence of the signal and sends a control signal to the external controller.

The control signal then causes the controller to activate an output device or to start the necessary process. The CX-413-P-Z can be configured to provide an output in either NPN or PNP logic, or in an 8-bit parallel output format. The device is also equipped with an LED indicator light that allows easy adjustment and enhances convenience when debugging. A built-in protection system also protects the device from interference, dust, moisture and chemicals.

Optical sensors are versatile and effective tools that are used in both industrial and home applications. The CX-413-P-Z photoelectric switch is a reliable and reliable device that is ideal for a wide range of applications, from machine tooling to conveyor lines and manual sorting operations. With its robust construction, wide sensing range, high resolution, and protection system, the CX-413-P-Z is quickly becoming one of the most sought-after photoelectric switches today.
