EE-SPX840

Optical Sensors are widely used in industrial and consumer applications where precise information is requested from the environment. Photointerrupters are one of the most popular types of optical sensors, which have a light-emitting element combined with a photoelectric element that detects changes in illumination levels. Slot Type photointerrupters are used to detect when an object such as a moving belt or printed object has passed through the slot, and output a logic signal based on the condition. The EE-SPX840 is an example of a Slot Type Photointerrupter with a Logic Output.

The EE-SPX840 is a 1-channel slot optical sensor designed to monitor and position an object passing through its slot. It is capable of withstanding high temperature and vibration, making it ideal for use in applications as diverse as machine tools, automatic door control, vending machines, and electronic measurement and inspection equipment. The EE-SPX840 is a 5.4mm wide rectangular sensor built into a din rail cover and is capable of sensing between 10mm and 90mm gap widths.

The EE-SPX840 features a light emitting diode (LED) and phototransistor that are optically coupled together and used to detect when an object passes through its slot. When the slot is blocked, the LED sends a light signal to the phototransistor, which then triggers an output signal. The narrow design of the EE-SPX840 allows it to be used in tight spaces, and its output is available in both analog and digital versions for easy interfacing with other electronic components.

The EE-SPX840 is an excellent choice for applications where precise object positioning or detection is required. It is capable of detecting objects up to 90mm in size, which makes it ideal for applications such as automated door control or machine tooling. Additionally, it is highly reliable and resistant to vibration and temperature extremes, making it an ideal choice for industrial environments.

The EE-SPX840 is an excellent choice for applications where precise object positioning or detection is required. Its small size and rugged construction make it ideal for industrial environments, where it is capable of detecting objects up to 90mm in size. Additionally, its output is available in both analog and digital versions for easy interfacing with other electronic components, making it easy to integrate into existing systems. In conclusion, the EE-SPX840 is a reliable option for applications requiring precise object detection and positioning.
