MAXI-AMP CD Series
CD Series MAXI-AMP modules combine power supply, modulated
photoelectric amplifier, timing logic (in CD5 models) and output
switch in a single compact, cost-saving module. CD Series modules
work together with Banner SP12 Series preamplified remote sensors.
These sensors offer small size and high power, and are built to operate
in highly demanding sensing environments. Their preamplified design
gives them exceptionally high immunity to electrical noise (see page 7
for further information). MAXI-AMP modules themselves are also
ruggedly built for dependable industrial duty.
CD Series MAXI-AMP modules contain a state-of-the-art Banner
CMOS modulator/demodulator/amplifier circuit that offers high im-
munity to both ambient light and electrical interference plus reliable
sensor performance. All models have Banner's exclusive, patented
Alignment Indicating Device (AID™) system, which lights an LED
indicator whenever the receiver sees a "light" condition, and pulses the
LED at a rate proportional to the received light signal strength. MAXI-
AMP modules operate from a variety of voltages (see tables at right).
All CD Series modules are programmable for LIGHT or DARK oper-
ate. Module input response time may be set at either 1.5 or 15 milli-
seconds. The 15-millisecond response mode offers maximum sensing
power (excess gain) with SP12 Series sensors. CD Series modules also
feature selectable sensor modulation frequencies ("A" and "B"). This
makes it possible to operate two high-powered SP12 Series sensor pairs
using different modulation frequencies (at the same response time
setting) in close proximity to each other without optical crosstalk.
CD5 models include a versatile multi-function timing logic circuit that
is programmable for 12 popular and useful delay, one-shot, and latch
functions. Each timing function has a choice of three time ranges.
Timing and sensitivity adjustments use rugged 15-turn potentiometers
for very accurate settings. CD Series module circuit design prevents
false outputs on system power-up.
The output circuit for CD3A, 3B, 5A, and 5B modules consists of two
SPST solid-state switches: one for ac loads of up to 250V ac (3/4 amp),
and a second for dc loads of up to 30V dc (50 mA). Models CD5RA
and CD5RB have a 5-amp SPDT electromechanical relay. CD3RA and
CD3RB modules have a 5-amp SPDT electromechanical relay plus an
NPN transistor solid-state switch. For more information on output
circuit load capability, refer to the tables (right) and the Specifications
section on the next page.
