GP1A30R1J00F

Application Field and Working Principle of GP1A30R1J00F

Optical Sensors - Photointerrupters - Slot Type - Logic Output: GP1A30R1J00F is a Slot-Type Optical Sensor with a logic output. This type of photointerrupter can detect whether objects are present in the slot but does not indicate their exact location. It detects objects in the slot regardless of the shape or size and has a wide range of applications in industry where it is used for detecting thin metal wires, conveyor belts, or sheet pieces.

Working Principle

GP1A30R1J00F uses an infrared transmitter and receiver to detect the presence of an object in the slot. The detector consists of a light-emitting element, a light sensor and a plain window in between them which is known as the slot. The light from the light emitting element falls on the slot window and is blocked by an object which enters the slot. This reduces or eliminates the light received by the light-sensitive element thus changing the output state of the sensor.

Applications

GP1A30R1J00F is often used in industrial applications such as AGV and robot navigation, thin metal wire and sheet edge detections, positioning and sorting machines, paper processing machines, production line monitors, and warehouse surveillance. It can also be used to detect the presence of specific objects in automatic door systems, security systems, and safety systems.

The main advantage of GP1A30R1J00F device is that it consumes very little power, has a response time of less than 10 ms, and can be installed into a compact space. It operates at a wide range of temperatures and it is highly resistant to electric and magnetic interference making it highly reliable. It has a built in marker that can be used to quickly identify the slot when installing it. Additionally, it also provides protection against overvoltage and reverse polarity so it is very safe.

GP1A30R1J00F photointerrupter is a low cost and efficient device that offers a reliable way to detect and actuate the presence of objects in a wide range of applications. With its impressive features, high reliability and simple installation, GP1A30R1J00F offers a cost-effective and easy to use solution for many industrial applications.
