VALU-BEAM Modifications and Accessories
All Banner VALU-BEAM sensors are available with the "QD"
(Quick-Disconnect) option (below). A 3, 4, or 5-pin connector
(depending upon the VALU-BEAM model), built into the sensor's base, mates with the SJT-type
quick disconnect cable described below. Cable must be ordered separately.
The diagrams below show pin configurations for 3, 4, and 5 pin "QD" connectors, which are located
at the base of VALU-BEAM sensors having the "QD" option. Mirror-image pin numbering is used
for the connectors of the mating cables, as shown below. Male contact pins are used in the sensor
connectors. The cable connectors have female receptacles for wiring safety.
Standard VALU-BEAM sensors (non-"QD" models, which are normally supplied with an attached
6-foot long PVC-covered cable) may instead be supplied optionally with an attached 30-foot PVC-
covered cable. Thirty feet is the most readily available length, but lengths longer than 30 feet may
also be quoted.
