    Photoelectric Sensor PK3 Square Shape

    RIKO

    Manufactured overseas for a competitive price.
    [Features]
    · "Light" is emitted from the projector as a signal to detect the light reflected from the object of detection on the light receiving part, and gets the output signals by detecting the variation in the amount of light intercepted.
    · Sensing distance of 10 m and more is achieved in case of the thru-beam type.
    · As detection is performed based on the surface reflection on the object and amount of light intercepted, almost all objects can be detected including glass, plastic, wooden and liquid objects.
    · There is no following operation time and response time is very short as the circuit has electronic components.
    · The special optical system and circuit employed makes high-accuracy positioning and detection of small objects possible.
    · Light has color characteristics, therefore the reflection and absorption rates respectively vary according to the specific wavelengths. As a result, color detection and identification are possible based on the variation in the intensity of light received.

FAQ Photoelectric Sensors, Fiber Sensors

Question: What is the main advantage of using photoelectric sensors in industrial applications?
Answer: Photoelectric sensors offer a significant advantage in industrial settings due to their non-contact detection capability. This feature eliminates the need for physical contact with the target object, reducing wear and tear and enabling reliable, long-term operation. Their quick response time is crucial for applications requiring rapid detection, contributing to increased efficiency in various industrial processes.
Question: How do I choose the right photoelectric sensor?
Answer: Selecting the appropriate photoelectric sensor involves considering several factors. Evaluate the sensing distance required for your application, environmental conditions, such as ambient light and temperature, and the characteristics of the target objects. Differentiate between through-beam, reflective, and retroreflective sensors based on the specific needs of your application.
Question: Can these sensors be used in outdoor environments?
Answer: Some photoelectric sensors are designed for outdoor use. It's essential to choose sensors with suitable Ingress Protection (IP) ratings to ensure they can withstand exposure to weather elements and maintain reliable performance.
Question: What is the difference between a through-beam sensor and a reflective sensor?
Answer: Through-beam sensors consist of separate emitter and receiver units, with the light beam traveling from one unit to the other. In contrast, reflective sensors integrate both the emitter and receiver in the same housing, detecting the light reflected off a target object.
Question: Can photoelectric sensors detect transparent or highly reflective objects?
Answer: Certain photoelectric sensors are specifically engineered to detect transparent or highly reflective objects. Choosing sensors with the appropriate technology, such as background suppression or polarization filters, ensures accurate detection in challenging conditions.
Question: What maintenance do photoelectric sensors require?
Answer: Photoelectric sensors typically demand minimal maintenance. Regularly cleaning the sensor lens to prevent the accumulation of dust or dirt is recommended to ensure consistent and accurate performance over time.
Question: Are there any safety considerations when using photoelectric sensors?
Answer: When using photoelectric sensors, it's crucial to ensure compliance with relevant safety standards. Installation should follow the manufacturer's guidelines, and users should be aware of the sensor's limitations. For critical applications, incorporating redundancy or additional safety measures is advisable to mitigate potential risks.
