Optical sensors are widely used in a variety of industries, from manufacturing to medical, due to their ability to identify objects without contact or physical damage. Among them, photointerrupters are a type of sensor that operate based on the interruption of a beam of light. OPB830W55Z is a specific type of photointerrupter, slot type with transistor output. This article provides a brief overview of the application field and the working principle of the OPB830W55Z.

Application

The OPB830W55Z is suitable for use in industrial automation systems. It is especially effective in 3D printer motors, conveyor systems, and textile machines where its use provides accurate control of linear motion. Additionally, the OPB830W55Z is able to interface with various systems and works effectively with sensors, such as incremental and absolute encoders, limit switches, and magnetic sensors. Thanks to its wide operating temperature range of -10°C to +55°C, the OPB830W55Z can be used for industrial applications even in extreme working conditions.

Moreover, its compact size makes it suitable for use in space constrained areas. This is ideal for applications where the work space is at a premium. The OPB830W55Z is also available in a range of packages, allowing designers and users the flexibility to choose the most suitable form factor for their needs.

Working Principle

The basic idea behind the OPB830W55Z is that it consists of a light emitting diode (LED) and a phototransistor that are positioned opposite each other within a small housing. As the light emitted from the LED is interrupted, the phototransistor detects the change in light intensity and begins to collect information from it. This interaction between the two components enables the OPB830W55Z to accurately detect the presence of objects.

In addition, the OPB830W55Z has two outputs: PNP and NPN transistor outputs. The PNP output is open collector, meaning the output is high (active) when the infrared emitter is interrupted and low (inactive) when not. The NPN output is grounded, meaning the output is low (inactive) when the infrared emitter is interrupted and high (active) when not.

Conclusion

The OPB830W55Z is a versatile and reliable optoelectronic sensor for industrial automation systems. Its compact size and wide range of packages make it suitable for use in space constrained areas. It operates with two transistor outputs and is able to detect objects accurately with its light emitting diode (LED) and phototransistor capabilities. Its wide operating temperature range further ensures its reliability even in extreme working conditions.
