VISIBLE DETECTOR
CdS photoconductive cell
Metal package type
Hermetically sealed for high reliability
CdS photoconductive cells utilize photoconductive effects in semiconductors that decrease their resistance when illuminated by light. These
sensors are non-polar resistive elements with spectral response characteristics close to the human eye (luminous efficiency), thus making their
operating circuits simple and small.
Features Applications
l Variety of package size l Sensor for office machine
l Highly resistant to moisture and dust l Safety device for heating system and boiler
(flame monitor for oil burner)
l Night/day check sensor and sunlight sensor for air conditioner
l Alarm and safety sensor
