# The Laser Photoelectric Switch GAB100M-AK-5V

**Type:** Product page · **SKU:** FIT0319 · **Brand:** [DFRobot](https://core-electronics.com.au/brands/dfrobot-australia)
**Page:** https://core-electronics.com.au/the-laser-photoelectric-switch-gab100m-ak-5v.html ([markdown](https://core-electronics.com.au/the-laser-photoelectric-switch-gab100m-ak-5v.html.md))

This is a photoelectric switch that is composed of emitter and receptor.The emitter consists of a laser diode,and the laser has the characteristics of high precision, good orientation etc.The receptor consists of a photoelectric element.When receiving the laser pulse, the built-in light conducting.The emitter and receptor can assemble a detector. It can be directly compatible with Arduino to develop related products .Of course,it is also very suitable for photoelectric counting, security, ultra-high vehicle overrun detection etc.

## Restrictions

This product incorporates a laser system. Before purchasing or using laser equipment (including modules, components, or complete machines such as laser cutters and engravers), please consider the following:

- These products are intended for professional, educational, industrial, or supervised workshop environments.
- Operators should be appropriately trained and understand laser safety practices, including enclosures, signage, PPE, and safe operating procedures where applicable.

A declaration of use will need to be submitted during checkout.

## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=FIT0319:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/FIT0319:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)
