PHOTOSWITCHR Photoelectric Sensors
1–43
Description
MiniSight
photoelectric sensors of
fer
high performance sensing in a compact
package. A
vailable in both DC and
universal voltage two-wire AC/DC
versions, MiniSight is available in a
wide range of sensing modes to provide
multiple application solutions in a single
housing.
These sensors are interchangeable
with many other standard 18mm
threaded barrel photoelectric sensors.
Suitable for general purpose
applications, these sensors can also be
used where rugged performance is
required. MiniSight sensors will
withstand 1200 psi (8270kPa) high
pressure, 60_
C (140
_
F) high
temperature washdowns, making them
ideal for use in food and beverage
packaging and material handling
applications.
Three indicators display power
, output,
and operating margin status.
Note: The
power indicator shuts off when the
output indicator turns on.
The margin
indicator verifies a minimum 2.5X
operating margin and flashes if an
output is shorted. A clutch-protected
five turn sensitivity control allows
sensitivity adjustment. All are located
under a clear
, captive cover that does
not require tools for access.
MiniSight sensors are available in three
versions:
•10.8–30V DC standard versions
feature response times of 1ms (16ms
for transmitted beam), dual
NPN/PNP DC outputs and switch
selectable light or dark operation.
•For high speed applications, 300µs
response time versions are also
available for 10.8–30V DC operation.
•
Universal voltage two wire
21.6–250V AC/DC sensors have
short-circuit protection across the
entire voltage range.
