S186ELD(Q) Laser Diode Emitter
Class 1 Laser for Use With Banner Modulated Photoelectric Receivers
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.
Features
• Self-contained Class 1 modulated visible laser diode emitters permit higher gain and
extended range in opposed mode sensing systems
• Narrow effective beam for small-object detection or for precise position control
• 10 to 30V dc operation; third wire extinguishes laser light when connected to +V dc
• Compatible with all EZ-BEAM
® receivers; may also be used with a variety of other
Banner modulated photoelectric receivers (see Excess Gain chart below)
• Popular 18 millimeter threaded barrel design

* 9 m cables are available by adding suffix “W/30” to the model number of any cabled sensor (e.g., S186ELD W/30).
A model with a QD connector requires a mating cordset; see page 4.
LISTED
Excess Gain
Excess Gain of the S186ELD emitter is dependent on the receiver used. Following is a comparison of the excess gain for recommended
receivers at 15 m (50'). For information on compatibility of the S186ELD emitter with other Banner photoelectric receivers, contact the factory
Applications Group at the address or numbers listed on the back cover.
