WARNING . . . Not To Be Used for Personnel Protection
Never use these products for personnel protection. Doing so could lead to serious injury or death. These devices do NOT
include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow their use in personnel safety applications. A device failure
or malfunction can cause either an energized or de-energized output condition. Consult your current Banner Safety Products
catalog for safety products that meet OSHA, ANSI, and IEC standards for personnel protection.
Features
•Miniature right-angle dc photoelectric sensors in rugged die-cast metal housings
•Powerful 20-inch range
•Ultra-thin; only 8 mm (0.3 in) deep
•Pulse synchronization between emitter and receiver produces extremely high noise
immunity
•Totally self-contained; 10 to 30V dc operation
•Easy mechanical alignment
•Circuitry is completely sealed and epoxy-encapsulated; rated IP67 and NEMA 6
•Select models with NPN (sinking) or PNP (sourcing) output
•Select light operate or dark operate models
•3-wire hookup; output load capacity to 150 milliamps
•LED indicators for Power ON and Output ON; Output indicator may be used for
alignment
•2 m (6.5 ft) standard integral cable length; 9 m (30 ft) cable is also available
880 nm
