What causes the output signal of the photoelectric sensor to be unstable

Jul 02, 2021

The following situations may cause the output signal of the photoelectric sensor to be unstable when detecting the object:

① Abnormal power supply;

②The detection frequency is too fast;

③The problem of the size of the measured object;

④The measured object is not in the stable detection area of the sensor;

⑤ Electrical interference.


Countermeasures:

① Supply a stable voltage to the sensor, and the supplied current must be greater than the current consumption of the sensor;

②The passing speed of the measured object must be slower than the response speed of the sensor;

③The size of the measured object must be larger than the standard detection object or small detection object;

④The measured object must be detected within the stable detection range of the sensor;

⑤ Corresponding protective measures can be taken, such as: making a shielding cover around the probe, grounding high-power equipment, etc.

When using photoelectric sensors, please also pay attention to avoiding dusty places as much as possible; places with more corrosive gases; places where water, oil, and chemicals may directly splash; outdoors or sunlight, etc., where there is direct sunlight without shading The place where measures are taken; the place where the ambient temperature changes beyond the specified range of the product; the place where vibration and shock are large, but no shock-absorbing measures are taken. In order to avoid malfunction of the photoelectric sensor.
