WARNING . . .
Not To Be Used for Personnel Protection
Never use these products as sensing devices for personnel protection. Doing so could lead to serious injury or death.
These sensors do NOT include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow their use in personnel safety applications. A
sensor failure or malfunction can cause either an energized or de-energized sensor output condition. Consult your current Banner Safety Products
catalog for safety products which meet OSHA, ANSI and IEC standards for personnel protection.

WARRANTY: Banner Engineering Corp. warrants its products to be free from defects for one year. Banner Engineering Corp. will repair or replace, free of
charge, any product of its manufacture found to be defective at the time it is returned to the factory during the warranty period. This warranty does not
cover damage or liability for the improper application of Banner products. This warranty is in lieu of any other warranty either expressed or implied.
Specifications
Supply Voltage and Current
24 to 240V ac, 50/60 Hz or
24 to 240V dc (1.5 watts or 2.5 VA maximum)
Supply Protection Circuitry
Protected against transient voltages. DC hookup is without regard to polarity.
Output Configuration
SPDT (Single-Pole, Double Throw) (form C) electromechanical relay, ON/OFF output.
Output Rating
Maximum switching power (resistive load): 90W, 250VA
Maximum switching voltage (resistive load): 250V ac or 30V dc
Maximum switching current (resistive load): 3A
Minimum voltage and current: 5V dc, 10 mA

Located on rear panel, protected by a gasketed, clear acrylic cover (see above)
Indicators
Patented Alignment Indicator Device system (AID™) lights a rear-panel-mounted LED
indicator whenever the sensor sees a “light” condition. Its pulse rate is proportional to the
light signal strength (the stronger the signal, the faster the pulse rate).
Construction
Reinforced thermoplastic polyester housing, totally encapsulated, o-ring seal, acrylic lenses,
and stainless steel screws.
Environmental Rating

9 m (30') unterminated cable.
Operating Conditions
Temperature: -20° to +55°C (-4° to +131°F)
Maximum relative humidity: 90% at 50°C (non-condensing)
Application Note
Install transient suppressor (MOV) across contacts switching inductive loads.
