E3S-GS15 slot-type photoelectric switch sensor for position detection

E3S-GS15 U-groove photoelectric switch features 15mm standard slot width, infrared through-beam detection, and ultra-fast response ≤1ms. It detects opaque objects ≥2mm (metal, plastic, paper) with NPN/PNP, NO/NC outputs, wide 12–24V DC supply, IP65 protection, and adjustable sensitivity. Compact size, easy mounting, LED indicators, and long non-contact life make it ideal for high-speed counting, positioning, and automation in packaging, logistics, electronics, and machinery. Reliable, stable, and widely compatible with PLC systems.

    Working Principle

    The U-shaped photoelectric switch has a 'U' shaped structure, with an infrared LED (emitter) and a phototransistor or photodiode (receiver) installed on both sides. The infrared beam emitted by the emitter passes through the U-shaped slot to the receiver. When an object enters the U-shaped slot and blocks the light beam, the light intensity received by the receiver changes, causing a change in the internal circuit state and outputting the corresponding switch signal.

    Product Features

    1. U-shaped through-beam structure, no alignment required, easy to install, strong anti-interference
    2. 15mm standard slot width, highly versatile, suitable for most automation scenarios
    3. High-speed response (≤1ms), suitable for high-speed counting and positioning
    4. Wide voltage (12–24V DC), compatible with mainstream industrial control systems
    5. IP65 protection, dustproof and waterproof, suitable for industrial environments
    6. Red/green indicator lights, intuitively display working and stable status
    7. Adjustable sensitivity at the back, adaptable to different materials and thicknesses
    8. No mechanical contacts, long lifespan, maintenance-free

     application scenarios

    1. Automated Production Line: Part counting, in-place detection, origin positioning
    2. Packaging / Printing: Paper / label counting, color mark detection, correction
    3. Logistics / Sorting: Material in place, belt speed measurement, material shortage alarm
    4. 3C / Electronics: PCB inspection, component positioning, terminal in place
    5. Textile / Rubber & Plastic: Roll counting, material break detection, tension control
    6. Elevator / Door Control: Leveling, door in place, safety edge
