Description
The Bulletin 44B photoelectric sensor
is intended for industrial applications
which require the reliable detection of
objects that fall close to a surface
which must be ignored. Unlike
standard diffuse style sensors, the
Bulletin 44B incorporates a dual
receiver optical system to actively “see”
both the target and the background
areas. This allows the sensor to
suppress any background reflections.
The Bulletin 44B photoelectric sensor
is available in two sensing modes with
a common mechanical optics system.
The difference between the two lies in
their operation. As shown to the right,
both sensing modes will actively “see”
the background condition using the
second internal receiver. The
background suppression sensing
mode will output when it “sees”
reflected light from the target. In
contrast, the foreground suppression
sensing mode will use the background
as a “reflector” and output when
sensed area is blocked by the target.
In general, the foreground suppression
sensing mode should be used when
looking at a dark, irregularly shaped
target on a highly reflective
background. Background suppression
sensing mode is well suited for light
targets on a less reflective background.
For added installation and
troubleshooting assistance, both
sensing modes contain a green LED
status indicator to warn the user of an
unstable application condition, i.e. dirty
lens, low contrast. This indicator will
remain steady ON during normal
operation, but flash to indicate a
change in the application environment.
