Specifications
Sensing Beam
Visible red Class 2 laser, 650 nm
Supply Voltage
10 to 30 V dc (10% max. ripple) at less than 20 mA,
exclusive of load
Beam Size at Aperture
3.75 mm × 1.85 mm (0.15 in × 0.07 in)
Beam Divergence
Approximately 1 milliradian
Laser Classification
Class 2 safety (CDRH (FDA) 1040.10 and IEC
60875-1)
Supply Protection Circuitry
Protected against reverse polarity, over voltage, and
transient voltages
Delay at Power Up
< 1 second
Output Configuration
SPDT (complementary) solid-state switch; choose NPN
(current sinking) or PNP (current sourcing) models
Light operate: Normally-open output conducts when
the sensor sees its own modulated light
Dark operate: Normally-closed output conducts when
the sensor sees dark
Output Rating
150 mA maximum (each output)
OFF-state leakage current: < 1 microamp at 30 V dc
ON-state saturation voltage: < 0.3 V at 10 mA dc; <
0.8 V at 150 mA dc
Output Protection
Protected against continuous overload or short-circuit
of outputs; Overload trip point ≥ 220 mA
Output Response Time
0.2 ms (200 µs) ON and OFF
Repeatability
50 µs
Adjustments
12-turn slotted brass Gain (sensitivity) adjustment
potentiometer (clutched at both ends of travel)
Extinguishing Wire
Gray wire held “low” for laser operation; “high” to turn
laser OFF; Low ≤ 1.0 V dc; High ≥ V
supply
–4.0 V dc
(< 30 V dc) or disconnect wire; 100 ms delay upon
enable
Indicators
Two LEDs: green and amber
Green solid: power to sensor is ON
Amber solid: light is sensed; normally open output
is conducting
Green flashing: output overloaded
Amber flashing: marginal excess gain
Construction
Housings are heat-resistant ABS/polycarbonate alloy,
UL94-VO rated; acrylic lens cover
Environmental Rating
NEMA 6; IEC IP67
Connections
2 m (6.5 ft) or 9 m (30 ft) attached cable, or 5-pin
Euro-style 150 mm (6 in) pigtail quick-disconnect
fitting; mating cables for QD models are ordered
separately
Operating Conditions
Temperature: –10 °C to +45 °C (14 °F to 113 °F)
Maximum relative humidity: 90% at 50 °C (non-
condensing)
Weight
Sensor only: 28 g (1 oz)
Sensor plus 2 m cable: 68 g (2.4 oz)
Application Notes
False pulse may occur < 1 second after power-up
Certifications (all models except PD4*V..C300
Series)
