Honeywell HOA1881-013 Optoswitch Optocoupler Transistor Output 21" Pigtail 10pk

This is a factory-sealed package of 10 Honeywell HOA1881-013 Optoswitch units — slotted optical sensors with transistor output and 21-inch flexible pigtail leads. These are new old stock, unused components from Honeywell Optoelectronica S.A. de C.V., date-coded 96/14. Each unit features a slotted interrupter housing with an integrated emitter and phototransistor pair and pre-attached color-coded wire leads for easy integration.

Applications

The HOA1881 series is a line of slotted optical interrupters (optoswitches) used to detect the presence, position, or motion of an object passing through the sensor's slot. These are standard components in industrial automation, office equipment, printers, robotics, and precision motion-control systems — anywhere a non-contact, high-reliability switching signal is needed. The transistor output makes them straightforward to interface with logic circuits, microcontrollers, and PLCs. The 21-inch pigtail format is well-suited for installations where the sensor body is mounted at a distance from the PCB or control board. Leaded and peak reflow compatibility makes them usable in both hand-soldering and automated assembly workflows. Honeywell's Optoelectronica division produced this series through the 1990s and these components remain broadly compatible with designs specifying the HOA1881 family.
