MBO 0713 800 Sensor

The MBO optical sensor with part number 0713 800, also known as a transducer, detector, or light barrier, is an electrical component for the non-contact detection of physical quantities using light. It has the dimensions 18 x 20 x 3 cm and weighs 0.3 kg. Optical sensors convert light signals into electrical signals, thus serving for the precise detection of objects, distances, or colors in industrial processes. Typical applications are found in automation technology for positioning and presence detection, as well as in conveying and packaging technology for counting and quality control.
