IDEC SA1E diffuse-reflective sensors have the emitter and
receiver built into a single unit that allows these sensors to
rely upon reflection from the surface of the target object.
Light is sent from the sensor’s emitter to the target objects
and bounced back to the sensor’s receiver. Diffuse sensing is
the premiere choice for materials that are translucent to light.
These sensors are also ideal for many types of applications
because they are easy to setup and use. You only need to
wire one unit and there is no need for a separate receiver
or reflector.
