GS101205

The GS101205 position, proximity and speed sensor module is an electro-optical design created for use in areas where electrical noise or short-term disruptions may cause problems with conventional electronic sensors. The compact and lightweight module packs advanced non-contact sensing technology to ensure reliable performance and accurate results for speed, position and proximity sensing.

Basic Structure

The GS101205 is a self-contained module containing an integrated printed circuit board (PCB), optical transducer and photoreceiver. Its optical sensing element is the heart of the unit and contains a photoreceiver as well as a separate lens and detector. The lens allows the photoreceiver to detect signals over a wide range of distances, while the detector measures the intensity of the signal and translates it into a digital number. It is this number that is then processed and used to deduce the speed, position or proximity of an object.

Application Fields

The GS101205 can be used in a variety of applications. From automotive applications such as speed sensors and parking sensors, to industrial applications such as encoders, distance sensors and process control systems, the GS101205 has a wide range of applications. In industrial machinery, for example, the module can be used to sense the position of parts within an assembly line. Similarly, in automotive applications, the module can be used to measure the speed of a vehicle and to accurately determine the distance between two points.

Working Principle

The GS101205 is based on a simple yet effective principle for detecting the speed, position, or proximity of an object. It does this by emitting a low intensity infrared light from the optical transducer portion of the module and then receiving the reflected light by the photoreceiver portion of the unit. The intensity of the returned signal is then used to determine the distance of the object from the sensor. By varying the amount of infrared light emitted to the object, the module can use this information to accurately calculate the speed, position or proximity.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the GS101205 position, proximity and speed sensor module is a highly sensitive and accurate sensor that can be used in a wide range of applications. Its non-contact, electro-optical design ensures reliable performance and accurate results for speed, position and proximity sensing. With various different optoelectronic components integrated into a single self-contained module, this unit is ideal for various industrial, automotive and other applications where accuracy and reliable performance are paramount.
