Introduction

The GRTE18S-E231Z is an infrared photoelectric sensor designed to detect the presence of objects and measure distances in industrial applications. It is part of a larger family of photoelectric sensors known as optical sensors, which are vital components for industrial automation. This article will explain the application field and working principles of this type of sensor.

What is an Optical Sensor?

An optical sensor is a device that uses light to detect and measure distances, presence, absence, and motion. Photoelectric optical sensors are the most common type of optical sensor, and they are used in industrial automation, such as robotic arms, to detect objects, to measure distances, and to provide accurate control signals. The GRTE18S-E231Z is the latest model in the family of photoelectric sensors offered by GRTE. It is designed to provide accurate measurements, a reliable detection range, and a long-term service life.

Application Field and Working Principles of the GRTE18S-E231Z

The GRTE18S-E231Z has a large detection range of up to 10 m (33 ft.) and uses an infrared LED to send and receive an infrared beam. The beam is emitted onto an object or area, and the sensor is able to detect the amount of light that is reflected back.In sensing mode, the GRTE18S-E231Z can detect whether an object is present or not. When an object is detected, a signal is sent to the system, which can then be used to take some predefined action, such as activating a robot arm or triggering a production process.In measurement mode, the GRTE18S-E231Z supports a range of measurement distances from 5 to 10 m (16 – 33 ft.) with a resolution of 1 mm. The sensor emits an infrared beam and measures the amount of light reflected back. The amount of time it takes for the beam to travel from the sensor to the object, and back, is then measured before the distance is calculated.

Conclusion

The GRTE18S-E231Z is a photoelectric sensor designed for industrial automation and other applications. With its large detection range and reliable performance, it is an ideal choice for any application where accurate measurements and reliable responses are paramount. This article has provided an overview of the application field and working principle of the GRTE18S-E231Z, demonstrating why it is such a useful and versatile tool.
