Optical sensors are an important part of industrial automation that sense and transduce optical properties into electric signals, providing a means of controlling a wide range of processes and applications. The E3G-L73 is an example of a type of photoelectric optical sensor, providing a reliable, accurate and user-friendly interface to detect objects.

The E3G-L73 uses two forms of sensing: a photoelectric effect and diffuse reflective sensing. The photoelectric effect is the conversion of light into electricity, and is typically used to sense objects from a distance. The light source in the E3G-L73 is composed of a light emitting diode (LED) in the form of a small pulsating light that is quickly scanned over a range of light levels in a diffuse reflective or fast-paced environment. The output of the sensor is in the form of an electric current that is directly proportional to the level of light detected.

The diffuse reflective sensing of objects is used by the E3G-L73 when it is being used in applications where the object is close to the light source, such as when measuring distance or size. In this method, the light radiation is reflected from the surface of the object back into the sensor. By measuring the intensity and spectrum of the light received back from the object, the E3G-L73 can accurately determine the distance or size of the object.

In addition to sensing, the E3G-L73 also provides a variety of output types. These outputs include analog, digital, contact, analog and digital, or a combination of all of them. It also includes various control features such as pulse width modulation (PWM) and pulse frequency control. The E3G-L73 also has a built-in microcontroller for data logging and for monitoring the status of other components in the application.

The E3G-L73 is mainly used in applications ranging from industrial automation to the detection of objects and the determination of distance. Common applications include process control, measurement, sorting, bottle filling, inspection, quality control, material handling, and more. In industrial settings, it can be used for level sensing, controlling speed, and detecting obstacles or objects.

The working principle of the E3G-L73 is based on a light-enabled electronic circuit. The circuit comprises input, output, and the actual sensor device itself. The inputs can include light sources such as the LED previously mentioned, and the outputs represent electric signals such as a voltage or current. The sensor device is composed of a photocell, light sensitive resistor, and an optical chamber. The photocell is composed of two layers of semiconductor materials; when voltage is applied across the two layers, the molecules in the layers become excited and produce an electric signal that is detected by the photoresistor.

The amount of current generated by the photocell is determined by the intensity of the light entering the optical chamber. The light intensity can be regulated with the help of the variable aperture at the input. The output current is then converted to a voltage by the light-sensitive resistor. This voltage can then be further processed through the microcontroller for various types of operations such as measurement, classification, and control.

In conclusion, the E3G-L73 is a highly effective and versatile optical sensor used for a variety of industrial applications. It offers reliability, accuracy, and convenient operation through its photoelectric and diffuse reflective sensing capabilities, and its variety of outputs. By taking advantage of its wide range of features, organizations can use the E3G-L73 to ensure accurate measurements and efficient automation in all of its applications.
