Description
Photo Interrupter, Infrared Emitter - Detector, GP1A57HRJ00F
This sensor is composed of an infrared emitter on one upright and a shielded infrared detector on the other. By emitting a beam of infrared light from one upright to the other, the sensor can detect when an object passes between the uprights, breaking the beam. Used for many applications including optical limit switches, pellet dispensing, general object detection, etc. Gap width = 10mm
We also supply this part as a Photo Interrupter kit: with a 3 pin header, 220 Ohm resistor, and a breakout board.
