GP1A173LCSVF is a slot type logic output photointerrupter, which is an optical sensor made by Panasonic. It consists of a light emitter, which is usually an infra-red LED, and a light receiver with logic output. When light beams between the emitter and the receiver, the logic level changes, detecting presence of an object.GP1A173LCSVF is used in various applications, such as machine tool monitoring, motion control, materials handling, etc. It is suitable for detecting a paper or card with a minimum width of 0.8mm, under a gap of 2 to 5 mm. The working principle of GP1A173LCSVF is simple. The emitter emits an infrared light beam, and the receiver is used to detect the presence of an object. When the object in between the emitter and the receiver is detected, the logic level output changes from high to low, and vice versa.The advantages of GP1A173LCSVF are its high sensitivity, accuracy and reliability. It has high response time (0.5 ms) and it has high noise immunity. It has high detection accuracy and its logic level output is compatible with CMOS logic. It is also very simple to use, as it is plug-and-play and requires very simple wiring. For design and installation considerations, the clearance between the emitter and receiver should be kept between 2 and 5 mm, and the detection target should have a minimum width of 0.8mm. The environmental conditions should also be taken into consideration, such as temperature, humidity, and EMC regulations. In certain cases, it may be necessary to use a shielded cable or an optical filter for better accuracy. In conclusion, GP1A173LCSVF is a slot type logic output photointerrupter, made by Panasonic, and is suitable for various applications such as machine tool monitoring, motion control, and material handling. It has high sensitivity, accuracy, and reliability, and is very easy to use. Its working principle is simple, and its design and installation can be simple if the environmental parameters are taken into consideration.
