Optical sensors are used for detecting and measuring visible light or infrared radiation. In particular, they are used for automation applications and are available in a range of styles to suit specific requirements. The E3S-AT16-D is a type of photoelectric sensor within the industrial range, designed for use in a production line setting. This article examines the various types of E3S-AT16-D applications available along with an in depth look at its working principle.

Types of Applications

The E3S-AT16-D is an industrial grade photoelectric sensor, designed for use in machinery and other industrial production lines. It is a versatile sensor with many applications, including factory automation, packaging machinery, material storage and retrieval equipment, and other applications involving long-distance detection of objects. It can also be used in cleanroom and hazardous environment settings for hazardous area applications.

The E3S-AT16-D is a short-distance sensing device, designed for use within a range of 0.25 to 16.4 mm making it suitable for use in a range of applications where short-distance sensing is required. It can be used in single-beam sensing mode, or in multiple-beam sensing mode, where up to eight beams can be configured simultaneously.

Working Principle

The working principle of the E3S-AT16-D is based on the use of light emitted from an LED source. The LED emits light in a specific amplitude of visible light and infrared radiation, which is then detected by a photocoupler. When the light emitted by the LED is blocked by an object, the photocoupler senses the interruption and sends a signal to the sensor. The signal then triggers the sensor’s response mechanism.

In single-beam sensing mode, the E3S-AT16-D uses a light-detection circuit to detect the amount of light that is scattered off of an incoming object. Based on the amount of scattering, the sensor can calculate the distance of the object. In multiple-beam sensing mode, the sensor uses multiple light-detection circuits in order to precisely detect the location of the object.

The sensitivity of the E3S-AT16-D can be adjusted, depending on the application, to detect objects that are in very close proximity or at long distances. This is done by changing the input current of the LED source and the intensity of the infrared radiation emitted by the LED.

Conclusion

The E3S-AT16-D is a versatile photoelectric sensor with many industrial applications. It is a short-distance sensing device with adjustable sensitivity that can be used in single-beam sensing mode or multiple-beam sensing mode. The working principle of the E3S-AT16-D is based on the use of light emitted from an LED source which is then detected by a photocoupler, triggering the sensor’s response mechanism. The E3S-AT16-D is an ideal solution for automation solutions that require short-distance sensing.
