Liquid Detection Photo Sensor KB3390 and Other New Product Introduction Leaflet

No need for expensive liquid detection sensors! A general-purpose photo sensor can detect the presence or absence of liquid passing through pipes or tubes.

○ Expensive liquid detection sensors are not necessary. General-purpose photo sensors can detect the presence of liquid passing through pipes or tubes. ○ Increasing added value through a change in perspective. Liquid detection is not possible with conventional installation methods. By changing the perspective and adjusting the position, we utilized the refractive properties of light to enable liquid detection. ○ In addition to separated photo sensors, there are sensors that can detect liquid using general-purpose photo interrupters as well.

★The launch of the 'Photosensor Blog' that answers everyone's "want to know"★ You can view it from the link below! Photosensors are quietly active behind the scenes around you. Most people have probably never even seen one. And that's understandable, as photosensors are very shy... They are working hard in the shadows, making significant contributions. In the 'Photosensor Blog' by Shin-Etsu Electronics, we focus on these unsung heroes, the photosensors, and deliver information that answers your "want to know"! 【A glimpse of the blog】 ■ Beginner's section (basic structure, types, application examples, etc.) ■ Case studies (Can it detect a 0.3mm fine wire? Achieving a 95% weight reduction? etc.) ■ Featured products (Reflective photosensors capable of color discrimination with high resolution) *The case studies mentioned are included in the 'Photosensor Problem-Solving Case Collection Vol.1', which can be viewed via the "PDF Download" link below.

[Material] Beginner's Edition: Introduction to Photo Sensors

Introducing the basic structure of photo sensors, as well as the types of photo sensors!

A "photo sensor" is an electronic component that detects light emitted from a light source and converts it into a signal. It reads the changes in the signal caused by an object obstructing the light path (the path of light) and makes a judgment based on that. Using light for detection offers a significant advantage of non-contact detection of the target. On the other hand, it also has the disadvantage of being difficult to use in environments with stray light, making it a behind-the-scenes presence that is often used in many places around us but not easily noticed. This document provides a clear explanation of the basic structure of photo sensors, the types of photo sensors, their characteristics by type, and application examples. [Contents] ■ Basic structure of photo sensors ■ Types of photo sensors ■ Characteristics by type and application examples ■ The option of customization *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
