Specifications

Supply Voltage and Current

10 V to 30 V 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 70°

C (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

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

Indicators

Indicator LEDs are visible beneath a raised transparent polycarbonate

dome on top of the sensor.

Power (green) LED: lights whenever 10 V to 30 V 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.

modulated light source, and pulses at a rate proportional to the

strength of the received light signal

Load (amber) LED: lights whenever an output is conducting

Optional 7-element LED: signal strength display module

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.

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 ft) or 9 m (30 ft) cables, or 5-pin Mini-style (“Q”

suffix models) or 5-pin Euro-style (“Q6”suffix models) quick disconnect

(QD) fitting are available. QD cables are ordered separately.
