Banner VS4 Series User Manual
Vs4 series opposed-mode sensors, Models, Specifications
Miniature Self-Contained Sensors
• Totally self-contained miniature sensors
• 10 to 30V dc operation
• Visible red sensing beam, 660 nm
• Up to 1.0 m (39 in) sensing range
• Choose dark or light operate models
• Choose models with NPN (sinking) or PNP (sourcing) output
• 2-wire and 3-wire hookup; output load capacity to 50 mA
• Choice of integral cable or quick-disconnect pigtail
WARNING: Not To Be Used for Personnel Protection
Never use this device as a sensing device for personnel protection. Doing so could lead to serious
injury or death. This device does NOT include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow its
use in personnel safety applications. A sensor failure or malfunction can cause either an energized or de-
energized sensor output condition.

10 to 30V dc (10% maximum ripple)
Emitter: 25 mA
Receiver: 25 mA (exclusive of load)
Supply Protection Circuitry
Protected against reverse polarity and transient voltag-
es
Indicators
Two LEDs: Green and Yellow
Green ON steady: power to sensor is ON
Green flashing: output overload
Yellow ON steady: light is sensed
Yellow flashing: marginal excess gain (1 to 1.5x) in
light condition
