Solid, sensitive solutions. Optoelectronics integrates optical
principles and semi-conductor electronics — the inter-conversion
of electricity to light. In electronic systems where feedback and
control systems are common, these infrared sensors are often
critical.
Honeywell Sensing and Control (S&C) offers a broad selection of
often reliable, cost-effective, off-the-shelf optoelectronic sensor
solutions for many potential applications — including printers and
copiers, metering and data storage systems, liquid-level sensing,
motion control, scanning, automated transactions, barcode
readers, drop sensors, and other medical equipment. We also
provide a wide array of custom solutions ranging from special
electrical selections, special markings, wiring, and connectors to
completely unique housings or integrated circuits.
FEATURES
REFLECTIVE SENSORS
HOA1395.
Features: Side-looking plastic package
• Phototransistor output • Infrared emitter
and phototransistor detector in a single
package • Low prole for design exibility

HOA1405.
Features: Phototransistor output
• Focused for maximum response
• Ambient light and dust protective lter
• Plastic-molded components
Benets: An infrared emitter and
phototransistor encased side-by-side on
converging optical axes. Phototransistor
responds to radiation from an infrared
emitter only when a reective object
passes within its eld of view. Employs
an IR transmissive lter to minimize the
effects of visible ambient light and to
provide a smooth optical face which
prevents the accumulation of airborne
Unless otherwise noted, potential applications include printers and copiers, motion control systems, metering systems, liquid-level
sensing, data storage systems, scanning, automated transaction, drop sensors, and other noninvasive medical equipment.
