Banner MAXI-BEAM Series - Manual (Page 4)

Sensing Mode Models Excess Gain Beam Pattern
This sensor pair is designed for opposed mode operation using Banner glass fiber
optics. Maximum range (HP mode) using L9 lenses is 12 feet. Maximum range
using L16F lenses is 50 feet.
OPPOSED Mode
MAXI-BEAM emitters have a visible red "tracer beam". This beam is non-active,
and is used as a means of visual alignment during installation. A retroreflector
temporarily attached to the receiver lens provides an effective target for the tracer
beam during alignment. The narrow beam of the RSBESR/RSBRSR pair is ideal
for sensing small parts (effective beam diameter is 0.14 inch).
