3 Specicaons
3.1 Specicaons for the Emier/Receiver Pairs
Range (9.5 mm Beam Spacing)
0.6 m to 6.1 m (2 to 20 ) for sensors < 4
0.6 m to 4.6 m (2 to 15 ) for sensors > 4
Maximum range is specied at the point where 3× excess gain remains.
Minimum Object Sensivity (9.5 mm Beam Spacing)
19.1 mm (0.75 in)
Interlaced Mode: 12.7 mm (0.5 in)
Assumes sensing is in middle one-third of scanning range.
Supply Voltage and Current (Emier)
0.10 amps at 12 V dc
Maximum current is for a 6 sensor.
Status Indicators (Emier)
Red LED lights for proper operaon
Construcon
Aluminum housing with black anodized nish; acrylic lens cover
Range (19.1 mm Beam Spacing)
0.9 m to 17 m (3 to 55 ) for sensors < 4
0.9 m to 14 m (3 to 45 )for sensors > 4
Maximum range is specied at the point where 3× excess gain remains.
Minimum Object Sensivity (19.1 mm Beam Spacing)
38.1 mm (1.5 in)
Interlaced Mode: 25.4 mm (1 in)
Assumes sensing is in middle one-third of scanning range.
Supply Voltage and Current (Receiver)
9.5 mm beams: 0.75 amps at 12 V dc maximum
19.1 mm beams: 0.50 amps at 12 V dc maximum
Maximum current is for a 6 sensor.
Status Indicators (Receiver)
Green: sensors aligned (> 3× excess gain)
Amber: marginal alignment (1×-3× excess gain)
Red: sensors misaligned or beam(s) blocked
Sensor Scan Time
55 microseconds per beam, plus 1 millisecond processing me per scan
Assumes straight scan, connuous scan, and TBB mode
Environmental Rang
NEMA 4, 13 (IEC IP65)
Operang Condions
20 °C to +70 °C (4 °F to +158 °F)
95% maximum
relave humidity (non-condensing)
Connecons
Emier and receiver connect to controller using two 5-conductor quick-
disconnect cables (one each for emier and receiver), ordered separately.
Cables measure 8.1 mm (0.32 in ) dia., and are shielded and PVC-jacketed;
conductors are 20-gauge.
Use only Banner cables, which incorporate a "“twisted pair” for noise immunity
on RS-485 data communicaon lines.
Emier and receiver cables may not exceed 250 each.
