LP400WB
"WB" in this model number designates "wide beam". The LP400WB is an
infrared divergent mode (wide angle diffuse mode) sensor which is particu-
larly forgiving for reflectively sensing transparent or translucent materials or
for sensing objects with irregular surfaces (e.g.- webs with "flutter"). The optics
are such that even small threads or wires .005" (0,1mm) or greater in diameter
may be detected when they pass within .25" (6mm) of the sensor's plastic lens.
Due to its wide response pattern, the LP400WB should not be used for precise
positioning control, nor should it be mounted with its lens recessed into a hole.

Sensors are epoxy-encapsulated. Cables are 6-1/2 feet (2m) long. 30-foot (9m) cables available by special order.
Sensors for use with MA3-4 and MA3-4P Modulated Amplifiers
Model SP300L is a remote retroreflective sensor with the same rugged design
as the SP300EL/RL, described above. Its useable range is from 6 inches to 15
feet (0,2 to 4,5m) using the model BRT-3 retroreflector.
If the object that is to break the beam has a shiny surface, then the SP300L and
its retroreflector should be mounted so that the beam is at an angle of 10 degrees
or more to that surface in order to eliminate false signals which are caused by
proxing.
Emitter-receiver pair SP300EL/RL are extremely rugged and are totally
encapsulated in anodized aluminum housings. The threaded hub at the cable
exit allows for the use of flexible armored cable or protective PVC tubing with
the addition of compression gland model CF7-16. This pair uses collimating

lenses to increase range. These sensors should also be used at short ranges for
their high excess gain or to avoid optical "crosstalk" in situations which require
several pairs to be mounted adjacent to one another.
