Light barrier

A light barrier is an optoelectronic device for recognizing people, objects or movements by interrupting a light beam. It mostly consists of a transmitter that sends a light beam (often infrared), and a opponent opposite who registers the light. If the light beam is interrupted by an object, the light barrier recognizes this and triggers an action, for example opening a door, stopping a machine or triggering an alarm.

There are different types of light barriers, including disposable light barriers, in which the transmitters and recipients are separated, and reflection light barriers that work with the help of a reflector. Light barriers are used in numerous applications, from security and access control to automation in industry. Your precision and reliability make you an indispensable part of modern control systems.
