## **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.

## **S18 Sensors – ac-Volta e Series g** 

## **Sp** 

## **Supply Voltage and Current** 

- 20 to 250V ac (50/60 Hz). Average current: 20 mA 

Peak current: 200 mA at 20V ac, 500 mA at 120V ac, 750 mA at  250V ac 

## **Supply Protection Circuitry** 

Protected against transient voltages 

## **Output Configuration** 

- SPST solid-state ac switch; Three-wire hookup; Choose light operate or dark operate models 

- _Light Operate:_ Output conducts when sensor sees its own (or the emitter’s) modulated light 

- _Dark Operate:_ Output conducts when the sensor sees dark 

## **Output Rating** 

300 mA maximum (continuous); 

**Fixed-Field Models:** derate 5 mA/°C above +50°C (+122°F) **Inrush Capability** 1 amp for 20 milliseconds, non-repetitive 

## **OFF-state leakage current:** < 100 microamps 

**ON-state saturation voltage:** 3V at 300 mA ac; 2V at 15 mA ac 

## **Output Protection Circuitry** 

Protected against false pulse on power-up 

## **Output Response Time** 

- **Opposed Mode:** 16 milliseconds ON, 8 milliseconds OFF 

- **Other Models:** 16 milliseconds ON and OFF 

NOTE:  100 millisecond delay on power-up 

## **Repeatability** 

**Opposed Mode:** 2 milliseconds **Other Models:** 4 milliseconds 

Repeatability and response are independent of signal strength. **Indicators** 

Two LEDs (Green and Yellow) **Green ON steady:** power to sensor is ON **Yellow ON steady:** sensor sees light 

**Yellow flashing:** excess gain marginal (1 to 1.5x) in light condition 

## **Construction** 

PBT polyester housing; polycarbonate (opposed mode) or acrylic lens 

## **Environmental Rating** 

Leakproof design rated NEMA 6P, DIN 40050 (IP69K) 

## **Connections** 

2 m (6.5') attached cable, or 4-pin Micro-style quick-disconnect fitting 

## **Operating Conditions** 

**Temperature:** -40° to +70°C (-40° to +158°F); **Maximum relative humidity:** 90% at 50°C (non-condensing) 

## **Vibration and Mechanical Shock** 

All models meet Mil. Std. 202F requirements. Method 201A (Vibration; frequency 10 to 60 Hz, max., double amplitude 0.06" acceleration 10G). Method 213B conditions H&I (Shock: 75G with unit operating; 100G for non-operation)
