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 Banner product
data sheet P/N 34466 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 immunity to
both ambient light and electrical interference plus reliable sensor per-
formance. 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 operate.
Module input response time may be set at either 1.5 or 15 milliseconds.
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.
