## PVL Parts Verification Array 

## Features 

Retroreflective Array Sensor Error Proofing and Light-Guided Assembly 

   - Rugged metal frame with 225 mm (8.9 in) or 500 mm (19.7 in) sensing length; 1.5 m (4.9 ft) sensing range using included retroreflective tape (up to 6 m (20 ft) range when used with multiple BRT-84X84A retroreflectors) 

   - • Highly visible green pick arrow • Red mis-pick arrow • Flexible mounting options; rugged steel mounting brackets • Fast response time—excellent for part detection applications 

- • • • 

- Ee 

## WARNING: 

- Do not use this device for personnel protection 

- • Using this device for personnel protection could result in serious injury or death. • This device does not include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow its use in personnel safety applications. A device failure or malfunction can cause either an energized (on) or de-energized (off) output condition.

## Installation 

Multiple sensors located farther than the sensor's maximum range from one another are unlikely to cause crosstalk problems. However, when multiple sensors are mounted in a confined area, take care to avoid crosstalk between them. Verify the sensor's beams fall in the center of the reflector.
