Ideal sensor for working up to 0.5" (12mm) from high speed equipment or other applications providing only contrasting light and dark surfaces.
Ideal sensor for working up to 0.5" (12mm) from high speed equipment or other applications providing only contrasting light and dark surfaces.
The Infrared Optical Sensor has an invisible infrared light source that is ideal for working up to 0.5 inch (12 mm) from high-speed equipment or other applications providing only contrasting light and dark surfaces or beam interruption by solid objects as small as 0.039 inch [1 mm]. The sensor is housed in a threaded 303 stainless steel tube and supplied with a 90 degree angle aluminum-mounting bracket and two M16 jam nuts. The IRS is supplied with an 8 foot [2.4 m] cable terminated with a 1/8 inch [3.5 mm] male stereo plug (IRS-P) or 4 tinned wires (IRS-W). An optional 25 foot [7.6 mm] extension cable EC-25P is available with a female socket for the plug on one end, and a 1/8 inch [3.5 mm] male stereo plug on the other. The IRS-W will work with all Monarch panel instruments that accept pulse inputs (e.g. ACT Series, DataChart 1250, DataChart 6000). A sensor power supply (SPSR-IM) with BNC output is available for those applications that require a separate power source for the sensor.
