Specifications
Supply Voltage and Current 10 to 30V 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 7C (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
NOTE: 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
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 (see page 6).
Indicators Indicator LEDs are visible beneath a raised transparent polycarbonate dome on top of the sensor.
Power (green) LED: lights whenever 10 to 30V 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 (yellow) LED: lights whenever an output is conducting
Optional 7-element LED: signal strength display module (see page 7)
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
Connections PVC-jacketed 2 m (6.5') or 9 m (30') cables, or 5-pin Mini-style (“Qsuffix models) or 5-pin Euro-style (“Q6
suffix models) quick disconnect (QD) fitting are available. QD cables are ordered separately; see page 6.
Operating Conditions Temperature: –1to +40° C (+14° to 10F)
Maximum relative humidity: 90% at 50° C (non-condensing)
Application Notes Optional logic timing modules are available. See page 7 for more information.
