• High sensitivity
• Easy to assemble and adjust
• Durable body
• Hysteresis-free.

Applications

• Speed and position detection
• Automotive equipment
• Sensors for Automatic Production and Measurement
• Industrial equipment
• Game control
• Security systems

Working Principle

PM-F64 consists of an infrared LED and one photodiode. When the device is in the "idle" state, the infrared LED transmits light to the photodiode, which provides a certain amount of output that can be detected by the circuit. When the slot is blocked, the infrared light is blocked, and the output level drops to a certain level, which can be detected by the circuit. By comparing the two outputs, the circuit can accurately judge whether the slot is blocked or not.

The PM-F64 can work with direct current and is designed to detect the position, velocity, width or any other size measurement of objects passing through a slot. This device is robust enough to withstand a wide range of environments and applications and requires no additional components for installation.

Conclusion

PM-F64 is a versatile optoelectronic slot type photointerrupter with transistor output. It is suitable for a wide range of applications, including speed and position detection, automotive equipment, industrial equipment, game control and security systems. It is easy to assemble and adjust, and can withstand a wide range of environments.
