- Only standard 2 m (6.5') cable models are listed. For 9 m (30') integral cable, add suffix **“W/30”** to the model number (e.g., **QS30E W/30** ). **QD models:** For 5-pin integral Euro-style QD, add suffix “ **Q** ” (e.g., **QS30EQ** ). - Range is specified using a model **BRT-84** retroreflector. ## **WARNING . . . Not To Be Used for Personnel Protection** ## **Never use these products as sensing devices for personnel protection. Doing so could lead to serious injury or death** These sensors do NOT include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow their use in personnel safety applications. A sensor failure or malfunction can cause either an energized or de-energized sensor output condition. Consult your current Banner Safety Products catalog for safety products which meet OSHA, ANSI and IEC standards for personnel protection. Printed in USA P/N 119165 rev. A 11/05 ## **WORLD-BEAM[®] QS30 – DC Voltage** ## ~~**Fixed-Field Mode Overview**~~ QS30 Series self-contained fixed-field sensors are small, powerful, visible red diffuse mode sensors with far-limit cutoff (a type of background suppression). Their high excess gain and fixed-field technology allow them to detect objects of low reflectivity that are directly in front of another surface, while ignoring the surface in the background. The cutoff distance is fixed. Backgrounds and background objects must _always_ be placed beyond the cutoff distance. ## **Fixed-Field Sensing – Theory of Operation** In operation, the QS30FF compares the reflections of its emitted light beam (E) from an object back to the sensor’s two differently-aimed detectors R1 and R2 (see Figure 2). If the near detector (R1) light signal is stronger than the far detector (R2) light signal (see object A, closer than the cutoff distance), the sensor responds to the object. If the far detector (R2) light signal is stronger than the near detector (R1) light signal (see object B, object beyond the cutoff distance), the sensor ignores the object. The cutoff distance for model QS30FF sensors is fixed at 200, 400 or 600 millimeters (8", 16", or 24"). Objects lying beyond the cutoff distance are ignored, even if they are highly reflective. However, it is possible to falsely detect a background object, under certain conditions (see Background Reflectivity and Placement). In the drawings and discussion on these pages, the letters E, R1, and R2 identify how the sensor’s three optical elements (Emitter “E”, Near Detector “R1”, and Far Detector “R2”) line up across the face of the sensor. The location of these elements defines the sensing axis (see Figure 2). The sensing axis becomes important in certain situations, such as those illustrated in Figures 5 and 6. ## ~~**Sensor Setup**~~ ## **Sensing Reliability** For best sensing reliability, the sensor-to-object distance should be positioned to maximize excess gain. The excess gain curves for these products are shown on page 5. Sensing at higher excess gains will make maximum use of each sensor’s available sensing power. The background must be placed beyond the cutoff distance; more reflective backgrounds must be placed further back. Following these two guidelines will improve sensing reliability. ## **Background Reflectivity and Placement** _Avoid mirror-like backgrounds that produce specular reflections._ False sensor response will occur if a background surface reflects the sensor’s light more strongly to the near detector, or “sensing” detector (R1) than to the far detector, or “cutoff” detector (R2). The result is a false ON condition (Figure 3). Use of a diffusely-reflective (matte) background will cure this problem. Other possible solutions are to angle the sensor or angle the background (in any plane) so the background does not reflect light back to the sensor (see Figure 4). Position the background as far beyond the cutoff distance as possible. **==> picture [166 x 401] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**

**Figure 2. Fixed-field sensing axis** An object beyond the cutoff distance, either stationary (and when positioned as shown in Figure 5), or if it moves past the face of the sensor in a direction perpendicular to the sensing axis, can cause unwanted triggering of the sensor if it reflects more light to the near detector than to the far detector. The problem is easily remedied by rotating the sensor 90° (Figure 6). The object then reflects the R1 and R2 fields equally, resulting in no false triggering. A better solution, if possible, may be to reposition the object or the sensor. ~~**Banner Engineering Corp.** • Minneapolis, MN U.S.A.~~ www.bannerengineering.com • Tel: 763.544.3164 **2** P/N 119165 rev. A ## **WORLD-BEAM[®] QS30 – DC Voltage** ## **Color Sensitivity** The effects of object reflectivity on cutoff distance, though small, may be important for some applications. It is expected that at any given cutoff setting, the actual cutoff distance for lower reflectance targets will be slightly shorter than for higher reflectance targets. This behavior is known as color sensitivity. For example, an excess gain of 1 (see page 5) for an object that reflects 1/10 as much light as the 90% white card is represented by the horizontal graph line at excess gain = 10. This line intersects the curve at approximately 190 mm. Thus, an object of this reflectivity results in a far limit cutoff of approximately 190 mm (7.5") for the 200 mm cutoff model, for example; and 190 mm represents the cutoff for this sensor and target. The excess gain curves on page 5 were generated using a white test card of 90% reflectance. Objects with reflectivity of less than 90% reflect less light back to the sensor, and thus require proportionately more excess gain in order to be sensed with the same reliability as more reflective objects. When sensing an object of very low reflectivity, it may be especially important to sense it at or near the distance of maximum excess gain. **==> picture [345 x 155] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**

A ## **WORLD-BEAM[®] QS30 – DC Voltage** ## ~~**Apertures**~~ Opposed-mode QS30 sensors may be fitted with apertures to narrow or shape the sensor’s effective beam to more closely match the size or profile of the objects being sensed. A common example is the use of “line” (or “slot”) type apertures to sense thread. NOTE: The use of apertures will reduce the sensing range (see table below). |**Model**
