Product Overview
The EE-SX3173/4173-P Series are transmissive photomicrosensors designed for integration into devices. They offer a compact, industry-leading size, and are available in 5 VDC and 24 VDC power supply options. These sensors feature a Photo IC output with selectable Dark-ON/Light-ON modes and a secure locking connector for enhanced resistance to vibration and shock. A Zener diode for increased noise immunity is included in specific models (EE-SX3173/4173-P3-Z).
