GP2A231LRSAF

GP2A230LRS0F

GP2A230LRSAF

Snap-in type

Detecting Distance : 1 to 9mm

*OPIC Output,

Reflective Photointerrupter with

Connector

■ Description

GP2A230LRS0F Series are standard, OPIC output,

reflective photointerrupters with emittter and detector

facing the same direction in a molding that provides

non-contact sensing. This family of devices uses light

modulation to reduce the affects of disturbing light, and

the sensor is optimized to work in the selected focal

distance. A 3-pin connector is included to allow remote-

mount or off-board designs.

■ Features

1. Reflective with OPIC Light Modulated Output

2. Highlights :

• Position pin to prevent mis-alignment.

• Snap-mount positioning hooks

(GP2A230LRSAF, GP2A231LRSAF)

• Includes additional screw fixing holes

(GP2A230LRS0F)

• Short focal distance

3. Key Parameters :

• Detecting distance : 1 to 9mm (White paper)

3 to 7mm (Black paper)

• Undetecting distance : over 27mm (White paper)

• Connector : GP2A230LRSAF ; Tyco Electronics AMP K.K.
