EATON 1350E-8547 Enhanced 50 Photoelectric Sensor, Photoelectric, Sensor Dist. 5 Ft., 250 Ma Max Dc

Eaton 1350E-8547 photoelectric sensor detects the presence, absence or distance of an object by using light. This sensor is widely used in the manufacturing, packaging, automotive and pharmaceutical industries for object detection, counting and positioning.

Features:

• Eaton 1350E-8547 photoelectric sensor features a low-gain indicator for easy alignment.
• It has fully potted construction for use in areas prone to washdown, high shock and vibration.
• This Enhanced 50 Series photoelectric sensor can operate in thru-beam or diffuse reflective mode depending on the fibre optic cable selected.

Compatible Accessories:

• Eaton 6201A-XXXX Retroreflective Tape: This tape is placed on the opposite side of the emitter to receive signals.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. How can I improve the performance of my photoelectric sensor?

A.

• To enhance sensor performance, ensure proper alignment between the sensor and the target object.
• Maintain a clear line of sight and adjust sensitivity settings as needed.

Q. How do I prevent false triggers or erratic behaviour in photoelectric sensors?

A. Reduce environmental interference and consider incorporating filtering or debounce algorithms into your control system to eliminate transient signals and increase reliability.

Q. What is the difference between a proximity sensor and a photoelectric sensor?

A. Proximity sensors use electromagnetic fields or capacitance to detect metal objects at a short range. Photoelectric sensors employ light to detect various materials at a longer range but can be affected by environmental factors.
