Optical sensors are popular in many different industrial applications. The NA40-10, commonly referred to as the "photoelectric switch," is a versatile and reliable optical sensor that can detect objects and obstacles in a wide variety of applications. Let’s take a closer look at the NA40-10’s application field and working principle to better understand how this type of sensor functions and how it is used.

Application Field

The NA40-10 can detect moving objects, such as mechanical parts, tools, and vehicles, as well as stationary obstacles. It has a sensing range between 4 and 10 mm, allowing it to detect objects that may not be visible. It is suitable for a variety of industries, including automotive, medical, and laboratory manufacturing.

It can also be used to monitor and detect various stages of a production cycle, such as when parts or materials are moving through individual process or when products have reached a certain location within the factory. This means that the NA40-10 is highly versatile and can be used in a variety of applications.

Working Principle

The NA40-10 uses a photoelectric detection principle, where an infrared light emitting diode (LED) is used to send an infrared beam of light in a specific direction. If an obstacle is detected in that area, the light is reflected back by the obstacle and detected by a receiver. When the receiver detects the reflected light, the NA40-10 is triggered and can initiate an action, such as shutting down machinery.

The NA40-10 also has a built-in delay timer, so once the infrared beam has been broken, the sensor will wait a predetermined amount of time before triggering the action. This helps to reduce false detections or false triggers caused by external factors such as vibration.

The NA40-10 also has a selectable sensitivity function that allows the user to set the level of sensitivity of the sensor, making it easier to avoid false detections. Finally, the NA40-10 has an adjustable delay timer, allowing the user to set a longer or shorter delay period for the sensor.

The NA40-10 has a wide range of applications and is often used for precision sensing applications. It is reliable, adjustable, and highly sensitive. For these reasons, it is becoming increasingly popular in many industries.
