T18 Sensors ac-Voltage Series

Fixed-Field Mode Overview

T18 Series self-contained fixed-field sensors are small, powerful, infrared diffuse modesensors with far-limit cutoff (a type of background suppression). Their high excess gain

and fixed-field technology allow them to detect objects of low reflectivity, while ignoringbackground surfaces.

The cutoff distance is fixed. Backgrounds and background objects must alwaysbe placedbeyond the cutoff distance.

Fixed-Field Sensing Theory o Operation

The T18FF compares the reflections of its emitted light beam (E) from an object back to thesensors two differently aimed detectors, R1 and R2 (see Figure 1). If the near detector (R1)light signal is stronger than the far detector (R2) light signal (see object A, closer than thecutoff distance), the sensor responds to the object. If the far detector (R2) light signal isstronger than the near detector (R1) light signal (see object B, beyond the cutoff distance),the sensor ignores the object.

The cutoff distance for model T18FF sensors is fixed at 25, 50 or 100 millimeters (1", 2",

or 4"). Objects lying beyond the cutoff distance usually are ignored, even if they are highlyreflective. However, it is possible to falsely detect a background object, under certainconditions (see Background Reflectivity and Placement).

In the drawings and discussion on these pages, the letters E, R1, and R2 identify how thesensors three optical elements (Emitter E, Near Detector R1, and Far Detector R2)line up across the face of the sensor. The location of these elements defines the sensingaxis (see Figure 2). The sensing axis becomes important in certain situations, such as thoseillustrated in Figures 5 and 6.

Sensor Setup

Sensing ReliabilityFor highest sensitivity, position the target object for sensing at or near the point ofmaximum excess gain. The excess gain curves for these products are shown on page 5.They show excess gain vs. sensing distance for sensors with 25 mm, 50 mm, and 100 mm(1", 2", and 4") cutoffs. Maximum excess gain for the 25 mm models occurs at a lens-to-object distance of about 7 mm; for 50 mm models, at about 10 mm; and for the 100 mmmodels, at about 20 mm. Sensing at or near this distance will make maximum use ofeach sensors available sensing power. The background must be placed beyond the cutoffdistance. (Note that the reflectivity of the background surface also may affect the cutoffdistance.) Following these two guidelines will improve sensing reliability.

Background Refectivity and PlacementAvoid mirror-like backgrounds that produce specular reflections. False sensor response willoccur if a background surface reflects the sensors light more strongly to the near detector,or sensing detector (R1), than to the far detector, or cutoff detector (R2). The resultis a false ON condition (Figure 3). To cure this problem, use a diffusely reflective (matte)background, or angle either the sensor or the background (in any plane) so the backgrounddoes not reflect light back to the sensor (see Figure 4). Position the background as farbeyond the cutoff distance as possible.

An object beyond the cutoff distance, either stationary (and when positioned as shown inFigure 5), or moving past the face of the sensor in a direction perpendicular to the sensingaxis, can cause unwanted triggering of the sensor if more light is reflected to the neardetector than to the far detector. The problem is easily remedied by rotating the sensor90 (Figure 6). The object then reflects the R1 and R2 fields equally, resulting in no falsetriggering. A better solution, if possible, may be to reposition the object or the sensor.

Color SensitivityThe effects of object reflectivity on cutoff distance, though small, may be important forsome applications. It is expected that at any given cutoff setting, the actual cutoff distancefor lower reflectance targets will be slightly shorter than for higher reflectance targets (seeFigure-of-Merit information on page 5). This behavior is known as color sensitivity.

For example, an excess gain of 1 (see page 5) for an object that reflects 1/10 as much lightas the 90% white card is represented by the horizontal graph line at excess gain = 10. Anobject of this reflectivity results in a far limit cutoff of approximately 20 mm (0.8"), for the25 mm (1") cutoff models for example; thus 20 mm represents the cutoff for this sensorand target.

These excess gain curves were generated using a white test card of 90% reflectance.Objects with reflectivity of less than 90% reflect less light back to the sensor, and thusrequire proportionately more excess gain in order to be sensed with the same reliability asmore reflective objects. When sensing an object of very low reflectivity, it may be especiallyimportant to sense it at or near the distance of maximum excess gain.

Features

"S2" Series EZ-BEAM sensors are designed to conn ect directly t o a "sm art" BUSsystem network junction, such as the Banner BUS-DEPOT. S2 Series sensors are

internally wired to take advantage of the EZ-BEAM's marginal signal ALARM output.The ALARM output is normally open (N.O.) and conducts w henever the sensor's

excess gain drops to between 1X and 1.5X in the light condition. The sensing signaloutput is also normally open, which means that the output conducts w hen light is

sensed (i.e. - light operate).

In order to take advantage of the second ALARM output, S2 sensors require the use

of BUS DEPOT junctions which offer two channels per input. Both sensor outputs arePNP (current sourcing) for direct connection to a BUS network junction using

standard 4-pin euro-style extension cables.

S2 Series sensors offer all of the features and powerful sensing performance that EZ-BEAMs of fer. The innovative dual-indicator system t akes the guesswork out of sensorperform ance mo nitorin g. Housings are tightly sealed and the sensor circuitry is

epoxy-encapsulated for reliable duty in wet or oily sensing environments. Models areavailable for opposed (through-beam), polarized retroreflective and fixed-field diffuse

sensing (see chart on page 2, for available ranges).

As the chart on page 2 show s, there are three basic housing st yles. The "S" style is athreaded barrel which is available in 18 mm or 30 m m diam eters. The "Q" style offerseither 25 mm or 4 0 mm right- angle rectangular housings. Finally, the "T" style is a

patented right-angle design available with either an 18 mm or 30 mm threaded lens.

The "T" style com bines the mounting ease of a barrel sensor with the low-p rofileadvantage of a rig ht-angle design.

Several mounting options are offered, including angled brackets and split-clampbrackets. S2 series sensors may also be sim ply mou nted through suitable clearanceholes. See page 7 for more inform ation.

T18 Sensors dc-Voltage Series

Fixed-Field Mode Overview

T18 Series self-contained fixed-field sensors are small, powerful, infrared diffuse modesensors with far-limit cutoff (a type of background suppression). Their high excess gain

and fixed-field technology allow them to detect objects of low reflectivity, while ignoringbackground surfaces.

The cutoff distance is fixed. Backgrounds and background objects must alwaysbe placedbeyond the cutoff distance.

Fixed-Field Sensing Theory o OperationThe T18FF compares the reflections of its emitted light beam (E) from an object back to thesensors two differently aimed detectors, R1 and R2 (see Figure 1). If the near detector (R1)light signal is stronger than the far detector (R2) light signal (see object A, closer than thecutoff distance), the sensor responds to the object. If the far detector (R2) light signal isstronger than the near detector (R1) light signal (see object B, beyond the cutoff distance),the sensor ignores the object.

The cutoff distance for model T18FF sensors is fixed at 25, 50 or 100 millimeters (1", 2",or 4"). Objects lying beyond the cutoff distance usually are ignored, even if they are highlyreflective. However, it is possible to falsely detect a background object, under certainconditions (see Background Reflectivity and Placement).

In the drawings and discussion on these pages, the letters E, R1, and R2 identify how thesensors three optical elements (Emitter E, Near Detector R1, and Far Detector R2)line up across the face of the sensor. The location of these elements defines the sensingaxis (see Figure 2). The sensing axis becomes important in certain situations, such as thoseillustrated in Figures 5 and 6.

Sensor Setup

Sensing Reliability

For highest sensitivity, position the target object for sensing at or near the point ofmaximum excess gain. Excess gain curves for these products are shown on page 5. Theyshow excess gain vs. sensing distance for sensors with 25 mm, 50 mm, and 100 mm (1",2", and 4") cutoffs. Maximum excess gain for the 25 mm models occurs at a lens-to-objectdistance of about 7 mm; for the 50 mm models, at about 10 mm; and for the 100 mmmodels, at about 20 mm. Sensing at or near this distance will make maximum use ofeach sensors available sensing power. The background must be placed beyond the cutoffdistance. (Note that the reflectivity of the background surface also may affect the cutoffdistance.) Following these two guidelines will improve sensing reliability.

Background Refectivity and PlacementAvoid mirror-like backgrounds that produce specular reflections. False sensor response willoccur if a background surface reflects the sensors light more strongly to the near detector,or sensing detector (R1), than to the far detector, or cutoff detector (R2). The result

is a false ON condition (Figure 3). To cure this problem, use a diffusely reflective (matte)background, or angle either the sensor or the background (in any plane) so the backgrounddoes not reflect light back to the sensor (see Figure 4). Position the background as farbeyond the cutoff distance as possible.

An object beyond the cutoff distance, either stationary (and when positioned as shown inFigure 5), or moving past the face of the sensor in a direction perpendicular to the sensingaxis, can cause unwanted sensor triggering if more light is reflected to the near detectorthan to the far detector. The problem is easily remedied by rotating the sensor 90(Figure 6). The object then reflects the R1 and R2 fields equally, resulting in no falsetriggering. A better solution, if possible, may be to reposition the object or the sensor.

As a general rule, the most reliablesensing of an object approaching from theside occurs when the line of approach is

Color SensitivityThe effects of object reflectivity on cutoff distance, though small, may be important forsome applications. It is expected that at any given cutoff setting, the actual cutoff distancefor lower reflectance targets will be slightly shorter than for higher reflectance targets (seeFigure-of-Merit information on page 5). This behavior is known as color sensitivity.

For example, an excess gain of 1 (see page 5) for an object that reflects 1/10 as much lightas the 90% white card is represented by the horizontal graph line at excess gain = 10. Anobject of this reflectivity results in a far limit cutoff of approximately 20 mm (0.8"), for the25 mm (1") cutoff model for example; thus 20 mm represents the cutoff for this sensor andtarget.

These excess gain curves were generated using a white test card of 90% reflectance.Objects with reflectivity of less than 90% reflect less light back to the sensor, and thusrequire proportionately more excess gain in order to be sensed with the same reliability asmore reflective objects. When sensing an object of very low reflectivity, it may be especiallyimportant to sense it at or near the distance of maximum excess gain.
