Banner WORLD-BEAM Q12 Series - Manual

Miniature self-contained photoelectric sensors in universal housing
• Bright, visible red (640 nm) light source
• Standard models available with 4-wire 2 m (6.5 ft) or 9 m (30 ft) cable or 3 or 4-wire
150 mm (6 in) pigtail with Pico-style M8 threaded connector
• Solid-state, bipolar outputs: one current sourcing (PNP) and one current sinking (NPN)
standard on 4-wire models
• Single output solid-state PNP or NPN standard on Q3 models
• Light Operate (L.O.) or Dark Operate (D.O.), depending on model
• Models available with PFA chemical-resistant jacket (1200 psi washdown rated) for
use in harsh environments (see Chemical-Resistant Models on page 1).
• Compact 8 mm (0.31 in) housing mounts almost anywhere
• Crosstalk avoidance circuitry for applications with multiple sensors
• LED status indicators for Power ON, Output Overload, Signal Received, and Marginal
Signal
• Models with black housing are available Standard Model Chemical-Resistant

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.
