Slotted Optical Switch OPB806 Features:  Non-contact switching  Base or side mounting  0.125” (3.175 mm) slot width Description: The OPB806 slotted optical switch consists of an infrared emitting diode (LED) and a NPN silicon phototransistor, mounted on opposite sides of a 0.125” (3.175 mm) wide slot. The OPB806 has two sets of mounting tabs allowing Base or Side mounting of the device. The LED and phototransistor leads project from each side of the housing on 0.050” (1.27 mm) centers. Phototransistor switching takes place whenever an opaque object passes through the slot. Applications:  Non-contact interruptive object sensing RoHS  Assembly line automation  Machine automation LED Peak Slot Width / Lead  Equipment security Part Number Wavelength Sensor Depth Aperture Length  Machine safety OPB806 935 nm Transistor 0.125" / 0.375” None 0.500" 1 3 4 2 Pin # Description 1 Anode 2 Cathode 3 Collector 4 Emitter [ MILLIMETERS] DIMENSIONS ARE IN: INCHES General Note TT Electronics | Optek Technology, Inc.
