DEFINITION
DEFINITION
In Thru Beam Optical Sensors the emitter and the receiver are housed
separately. Optical signal, which is pulsated by the pulse generator is sent by
emitter and is received by the receiver. Whenever there is an object
between emitter and the receiver light beam cannot pass through, thus
disrupting the optical signal, which is detected by the sensor and it gives
proper output. These sensors allow the longest range of detection.
REFLECTIVE METHOD
Unlike Thru Beam Sensors, in Reflective type sensors emitter and receiver
are housed together. In this case reflection occurs either from the target or
a reflector, which reflects the beam emitted by emitter, and this reflected
signal is received by receiver.
