Photoelectric sensors detect objects using light. They have a light emitter and receiver. When light is interrupted or reflected by an object, the receiver detects the change and outputs an electrical signal. There are different types including through-beam, retroreflective, and proximity sensors. Through-beam sensors detect when a light beam is blocked between separate emitter and receiver. Retroreflective sensors use a reflector to bounce light back to the receiver located with the emitter. Proximity sensors detect when light reflects off an object and into the receiver, which is located with the emitter.
A proximity sensor is a sensor able to detect the presence of nearby objects without any physical contact. It detects An Object When The Object Approaches Within The Detection Range And Boundary Of The Sensor. Proximity Sensor Includes All The Sensor That Perform Non-Contact Detection In Comparison To Sensors Such As Limit Switch, That Detect The Object By Physically Contacting Them. It is a sensor able to detect the presence of nearby objects without any physical contact

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

2. PHOTOELECTRIC SENSORS
• Photoelectric Sensors detect objects, changes in surface conditions, and
other items through a variety of optical properties.
• A Photoelectric Sensor consists primarily of an Emitter for emitting light
and a Receiver for receiving light.
• When emitted light is interrupted or reflected by the sensing object, it
changes the amount of light that arrives at the Receiver. The Receiver
detects this change and converts it to an electrical output.
• The light source for the majority of Photoelectric Sensors is infrared or
visible light (generally red, or green/blue for identifying colors).
Photoelectric Sensors are classified as shown in the figure below. (See
Classification.)
8. PHOTOELECTRIC SENSOR VS PROXIMITY SENSOR
• The sensor uses light to detect an object without physical contact.
• Proximity sensor utilizes an electromagnetic field to detect an object
contact. After that, it changes this data into an electrical signal.
11. INTRODUCTION
• A photoelectric sensor is a device used to determine the
distance, absence, or presence of an object by using a light
transmitter, often infrared, and a photoelectric receiver.
• They are largely used in industrial manufacturing. There are
three different useful types: opposed (through-beam), retro-
reflective, and proximity-sensing (diffused).
12. TYPES OF PHOTO SENSORS
• A self-contained photoelectric sensor contains the optics, along
with the electronics. It requires only a power source.
• The sensor performs its own modulation,
demodulation, amplification, and output switching.
• Some self-contained sensors provide such options as built-in
control timers or counters. Because of technological progress,
self-contained photoelectric sensors have become increasingly
smaller.
.
13. • When space is restricted or the environment too hostile even for
remote sensors, fibre optics may be used. Fibre optics are
passive mechanical sensing components.
• They may be used with either remote or self-contained sensors.
• They have no electrical circuitry and no moving parts, and can
safely pipe light into and out of hostile environments
14. • Remote photoelectric sensors used for remote sensing contain
only the optical components of a sensor.
• The circuitry for power input, amplification, and output switching
is located elsewhere, typically in a control panel.
• This allows the sensor, itself, to be very small. Also, the controls
for the sensor are more accessible, since they may be bigger.
15. SENSING MODES
• A through-beam arrangement consists of a receiver located
within the line-of-sight of the transmitter.
• In this mode, an object is detected when the light beam is
blocked from getting to the receiver from the transmitter.
• A retroreflective arrangement places the transmitter and
receiver at the same location and uses a reflector to bounce the
inverted light beam back from the transmitter to the receiver.
• An object is sensed when the beam is interrupted and fails to
reach the receiver.
16. • A proximity-sensing (diffused) arrangement is one in which the
transmitted radiation must reflect off the object in order to reach the
receiver.
• In this mode, an object is detected when the receiver sees the
transmitted source rather than when it fails to see it.
• As in retro-reflective sensors, diffuse sensor emitters and receivers
are located in the same housing. But the target acts as the reflector
so that detection of light is reflected off the disturbance object.
• The emitter sends out a beam of light (most often a pulsed infrared,
visible red, or laser) that diffuses in all directions, filling a detection
area. The target then enters the area and deflects part of the beam
back to the receiver.
• Detection occurs and output is turned on or off when sufficient light
falls on the receiver.
17. • Some photo-eyes have two different operational types, light
operate and dark operate.
• The light operates photo eyes become operational when the
receiver "receives" the transmitter signal.
• Dark operate photo eyes become operational when the receiver
"does not receive" the transmitter signal.
• The detecting range of a photoelectric sensor is its "field of
view", or the maximum distance from which the sensor can
retrieve information, minus the minimum distance.
• A minimum detectable object is the smallest object the sensor
can detect. More accurate sensors can often have minimum
detectable objects of minuscule size.
