KJT KD08 Photoelectric sensor switch reflector
A KJT KD08 Photoelectric sensor switch is a type of sensor used to detect objects or changes in surface conditions via a light transmitter and a receiver. Here is a general overview of how photoelectric sensors, particularly those using a reflector, operate and some considerations for their use:
Overview
Working Principle:
- Emitter: The sensor has an emitter that sends out a light beam (infrared, visible red, etc.).
- Reflector: In a reflective photoelectric sensor setup, the light beam hits a reflector placed opposite the sensor.
- Receiver: The light beam is reflected back to the sensor's receiver.
- Detection: An object passing between the sensor and the reflector interrupts the light beam, triggering a detection event.
Types of Photoelectric Sensors:
- Through-beam: Separate emitter and receiver; the object breaks the beam.
- Retro-reflective: Emitter and receiver are housed together, using a reflector.
- Diffuse: The object reflects the light back to the sensor.
Applications:
- Counting objects on a conveyor.
- Detecting the presence or absence of parts.
- Measuring the speed or direction of moving objects.
