OPB720B-12Z Overview

In order for the photoelectric sensor to work reliably, it should be set to 0°C~70°C degrees Celsius. The voltage of this electronic components should be given 4V~7V into a circuit or system to make it work. To ensure reliability, the photoelectric sensor operates at a minimum working temperature of 0°C. Reliable operation is ensured by a maximum operating temperature of 70°C. The photoelectric sensor must be connected to 3 pins in order to function properly. Photoelectric sensors should have a current of 50mA at their output in order to function. The maximum voltage of 7V in DC circuit can be applied to the photoelectric sensor without damage. As low a voltage as possible, such as 4V, can be used for this photoelectric sensor. If the specified thermal conditions are met, the photoelectric sensors will continue to dissipate 300mW continuously.
