Optical Sensors - Photoelectric, Industrial

Optical sensors are devices that detect the presence of an object by using the reflection of light. These sensors are typically designed to detect the presence of objects by using a light source, such as a laser, LED, or infrared light, and a receiver to measure the amount of reflected light. The primary use of optical sensors is in automation or robotics applications, where a robot arm can detect when there is an object in its path or to detect when an assembly line operation is complete.

The WTB9L-3P1161 is a photoelectric optical sensor that is specially designed for industrial applications. This sensor uses a visible LED light source that transmits a visible red beam onto the surface of the object being detected. This red beam is then reflected off of the object and detected by a receiving diode. It is capable of detecting objects both near and far from the sensor.

The working principle of the WTB9L-3P1161 is quite simple. When the LED light source is switched on, the red beam is transmitted onto the surface of the object. The reflected light is then detected by the receiving diode, which then triggers an output signal that can be used by an automation system. In most applications, this output signal is used to activate a robotic arm or other automated system to complete a task or operation.

The WTB9L-3P1161 is capable of accurately detecting objects from up to fifteen feet away, making it ideal for industrial applications. It is also suitable for detecting objects with various shapes and sizes, as it is highly sensitive to reflectance. Furthermore, the WTB9L-3P1161 operates at a low voltage, making it safe to operate around machinery and other equipment.
