Specifications
Supply Voltage and Current
10 V to 30 V dc (10% maximum ripple), at less than 50 mA (exclusive
of load)
Supply Protection Circuitry
Protected against reverse polarity and transient voltages
Output Configuration
Bipolar: one current sourcing (PNP) and one current sinking (NPN)
open-collector transistor
Output Rating
250 mA maximum each output up to 50° C, derated to 150 mA at 70°
C (derate 5 mA/°C)
Off-state leakage current: less than 1 microamp
Output saturation voltage (both outputs): less than 1 volt at 10
mA and less than 2 volts at 250 mA
Output Protection Circuitry
Protected against false pulse on power-up and continuous overload or
short circuit of outputs
Output Response Time
Less than 2 milliseconds
1 second delay on power-up; outputs do not conduct during this time.
Repeatability
0.5 milliseconds; response time and repeatability specifications are
independent of signal strength
Indicators
Indicator LEDs are visible beneath a raised transparent polycarbonate
dome on top of the sensor.
Power (green) LED: lights whenever 10 V to 30 V dc power is
applied, and flashes to indicate output overload or output short circuit.
A steady green LED also indicates that laser light is being emitted.
Signal (red) AID
™
system LED: lights whenever the sensor sees its
modulated light source, and pulses at a rate proportional to the
strength of the received light signal
Load (amber) LED: lights whenever an output is conducting
Optional 7-element LED: signal strength display module
Adjustments
Beneath sensor’s transparent cover: Light/Dark Operate select
switch and multi-turn Sensitivity control on top of sensor allow precise
sensitivity setting (turn clockwise to increase gain). Optional logic and
logic/display modules have adjustable timing functions.
Construction
Molded thermoplastic polyester housing, o-ring sealed transparent
polycarbonate top cover, molded acrylic lenses, and stainless steel
hardware. Q45 sensors are designed to withstand 1200 psi washdown.
The base of cabled models has a 1/2" NPS integral internal conduit
thread.
Environmental Rating
NEMA 6P, IEC IP67
Laser Classification
Class II laser product. US Safety Standards 21 CFR 1040.10 and
1040.11; European Standards EN 60825 and IEC 60825
