A through-beam sensor has the shortest sensing range of the three types of photo sensors.

Through-beam Sensor

A type of photoelectric sensor where the emitter and receiver are positioned opposite each other, detecting objects when the beam is interrupted.

Sensing Range

The distance within which a sensor can detect the presence of an object or a signal.

  • Recognize the uses and functionality of fiber optic and photoelectric sensors.

Final Answer :
False
Explanation :
A through-beam sensor typically has the longest sensing range among the three types of photoelectric sensors (through-beam, retro-reflective, and diffuse) because it uses separate emitter and receiver units, allowing for a more focused and efficient light path.
