Proximity Sensors

Proximity sensors are devices designed to detect the presence of objects without making any physical contact. They are very useful for ensuring safety of the operation of a device or system and providing reliable data. In industrial automation, they are widely used to detect the turbulence or motion of objects, such as machinery, as well as to detect the presence of workers on hazardous pools.

GX-M8A-U is a highly-accurate sensor designed for proximity detection applications. It is an optical sensor that uses a PHOTO-TRITON® optical sensing element and a highly sensitive amplifier to detect objects within a range of 0.05 to 0.2 m/s (0.17 to 0.66 ft/s). The sensor is also equipped with a dual LED which makes it suitable for applications requiring high-contrast detection even under poor lighting conditions.

Application fields

GX-M8A-U is a versatile proximity sensor suitable for a wide range of applications. It can be used in:

• Automotive industry: for detecting the motion of objects moving at high rates of speed, such as cars.
• Hospitality industry: for energy-saving solutions, such as controlling lighting and blinds.
• Industrial applications: for detecting the presence of objects, such as workers in hazardous areas, or for checking the state of machinery.
• Security and surveillance: for detecting intruders.
• Aerospace industry: for detecting the presence of objects or objects moving at high rates of speed.

Working principle

GX-M8A-U uses an optical sensing element to detect objects within its specified range. The sensing element consists of two parts: a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter emits an infra-red light pulse of predetermined width and frequency. This light pulse propagates through the space and, when an object is detected, some of the light is reflected back to the receiver. The reflected light is then detected by the receiver which generates an electrical signal indicating the presence of the object.

The GX-M8A-U also features a dual LED which allows it to detect objects even under poor lighting conditions. It also makes use of a highly sensitive amplifier to reduce the influence of noise on the signal. This ensures accurate and reliable detection of objects in its field of view.

In summary, GX-M8A-U is a highly-accurate proximity sensor designed for proximity detection applications. It is suitable for a wide range of applications and is equipped with a dual LED which allows it to detect objects even under poor lighting conditions. The sensor also features a highly sensitive amplifier to reduce the influence of noise on the signal, ensuring accurate detection of objects in its field of view.
