Through-Beam Photoelectric Sensor
A through-beam photoelectric sensor is a type of sensor that uses light to detect the presence or absence of an object. It consists of two main components: a transmitter and a receiver.
- Transmitter: Emits a beam of light.
- Receiver: Detects the light beam reflected back from the object.
When an object passes through the beam of light, it interrupts the light path between the transmitter and receiver. This interruption is detected by the receiver, triggering a signal that indicates the presence of the object.
