Discover the Advantages of Photoelectric Sensors
Are you tired of constantly replacing mechanical sensors due to wear and tear? Photoelectrics offer a solution with their non-contact detection capabilities and long life. With the ability to detect a target's presence or distance, ranging from millimeters to 700 feet, photoelectrics are versatile and can detect a wide range of targets. Solid-state and industrial-grade, our photoelectric sensors can withstand harsh environments and operate at fast speeds.
Photoelectric sensors use an emitter and receiver that work together to detect targets. The emitter uses light emitting diodes (LEDs) to pulse with a specific frequency, while the receiver is tuned to that frequency to block out noise. With options for visible red, infrared, green, and blue LEDs, as well as class one and two lasers, our photoelectric products are designed to ignore all other light noise in a factory environment.
Explore our different form factors and see how you can set up a photoelectric sensor for your specific application. From large-format emitters-receivers to small close-range sensors, we have a solution for you.
In this video, Scott and Darryl from Banner Engineering talk about photoelectric construction and some basic principles behind photoelectric sensing.
