Deep Gap Slotted Switch with Wire and Connector Options OPB815L, OPB815WZ Series L Package Features: • Wide slot width: 0.375” (9.5 mm) • Deep slot depth: 0.430” (10.9 mm) WZ Package Description: The OPB815 consists of an infrared Light Emi�ng Diode (LED) and an NPN silicon phototransistor mounted in a low-cost plas� c housing. The device is designed to switch electrical states when an opaque object is passed through the slot. The slot is wider and deeper than many slo� ed switches and will accommodate a variety of different materials. This device can be ordered with PCBoard solderable leads (OPB815L) or with 26 AWG stranded, UL rated wire length of 24” [610 mm] (OPB815WZ). Custom electrical, wire and cabling and connectors are available. Contact your local representa� ve or OPTEK for more informa� on.
