From Contrinex Inc.
Diffuse sensors enjoy great popularity with users and are consequently often employed. With these devices, the pulsed light from the emitting diode falls on an object of any shape or color, from which it is reflected in a diffuse manner. In turn, part of this reflected light reaches the light-receiving device, which is located in the same device. If the intensity of the received light is sufficient, the output is switched. Operating distances depend on target size, color and surface structure. The use of diffuse sensors is generally trouble-free. However, an almost insoluble problem appears when devices with very small diameters, short operating distances and/or narrow total beam angle are called for. Very small diameter devices are to be understood as M5 or less. Products & Services
