• EE-SX4162-P1 Application Field and Working Principle


• Introduction
• The EE-SX4162-P1 is a highly reliable and versatile slot type photointerrupter that has a logic output and is designed for the purpose of inputting and sensing the presence of an optical beam. This device is constructed with a light-receiving element that is optically conditioned through a slit in an aluminium block, which creates a break in the optical circuit when something separates the two slits, and the beam is then detected as light with infrared emitting diode (IRED) and phototransistor detection, resulting in a logic output signal.
• Application Field
• The EE-SX4162-P1 is ordinarily used in the detection of objects moving through the sensing slits. It is suitable for sensing checks in the fields of electronic components, and it is especially useful in applications where the item to be sensed is difficult to contact with other types of devices.


• The EE-SX4162-P1 device can be used in an industrial environment, such as packaging machines, conveyors, textile machinery, and other industrial production or automated processes.


• This device can also be used in the home, such as kitchens, bathrooms or even outside, in a wide array of applications ranging from security to maintenance.
• Working Principle
• The EE-SX4162-P1 is a slot type photointerrupter, which means the device works by detecting a break in the optical pathway. In this case, an infrared emitting diode (IRED) is centered within the aluminum block. A phototransistor is also placed in the aluminum block, so when light from the IRED is blocked by an object entering the slit, it will be detected as darkness.


• When the object is detected, the phototransistor will enable the logic output signal and it will remain enabled even when the object exits the slit. The logic output signal will then remain enabled until power is removed from the device.


• The EE-SX4162-P1 is designed to sense a discrete object when it enters the slot of the sensing element, and it is important to note that the area of the slot is designed to match the size of the item to be detected. It is also important to note that when the object is sensed, the logic output will remain enabled until power is removed from the device.
