Useful when sensing translucent objects in proximity (Beam Make) mode. Useful when sensing transparent objects in fiberoptic retroreflective (Beam Break) mode. Can be polarized for retroreflective (Beam Break) sensing to reduce proxing on shiny objects. Opposed fiberoptic light guides can be polarized for sensing some translucent plastic containers; consult factory for details. Used as red filter for color perception advantages. Sensing Range: 60ft Family Specific Current Requirements: 30mA (exclusive of load) Remote AUTOSET Input: Opto-isolated momentary sinking input (10 milliamps) Response Time Light State response = 600μs (1,100μs, Thru-Beam) Dark State response = 600μs (1,100μs, Thru-Beam) Light/Dark "ON" Operation: Light “ON” achieved by connecting white wire to negative lead Dark “ON” achieved by connecting white wire to positive lead Range: Dependent on model, see Selection Guidelines Note: 5 VDC models, range reduced by 10% Hysteresis: Approximately 20% of signal Light Immunity: Responds to sensor’s pulse modulated light source, resulting in high immunity to most ambient light, including high intensity strobes Diagnostic Indicators: Red LED = Output Status Green LED = Power “ON” Ambient Temperature: -40°C to 70°C (-40°F to 158°F) Rugged Construction: Chemical resistant, high-impact polycarbonate housing Waterproof ratings: NEMA 4X, IP66
