**----- End of picture text -----**
Each **OPB822** and **OPB826** slotted switch consists of two infrared emitting diodes and two NPN silicon phototransistors mounted on opposite sides of a 0.090” (2.29 mm) wide slot **(OPB822)** or a 0.100” (2.54 mm) wide slot **(OPB826)** . **OPB822** uses an side-by-side mounting configuration, while **OPB826** uses an over/under mounting configuration. **OPB822S** has 0.01” by 0.04” (0.25 mm x 1.02 mm) apertures in front of both phototransistors while the **OPB822SD** has the aperture in front of both phototransistors and both emitters. The **OPB826S** has 0.04” by 0.04” (1.02 mm x 1.02 mm) apertures in front of both phototransistors while the **OPB826SD** has the aperture in front of both phototransistors and both emitters. Dual channels enable direction of travel sensing, with the low-cost plastic housing reduces possible interference from ambient light and provides protection from dust and dirt. Phototransistor switching occurs when an opaque object passes through the device slot. For information on encoder design, see Application Bulletin 203 at: |Custom electrical, wire and cabling and
connectors are available. Contact your local
representative or OPTEK for more information.
