- 10 V dc to 30 V dc operation 

- Visible red or infrared sensing beam, depending on model 

- Up to 3 m (118 in) sensing range (see Range specifications) 

- Choose dark or light operate models 

- Choose models with NPN or PNP output 

- 2-wire and 3-wire hookup; output load capacity to 50 mA 

- Choice of integral cable or quick-disconnect 

- Sensors may be purchased in pairs, or individually 

## **WARNING: Not To Be Used for Personnel Protection** 

**Never use this device as a sensing device for personnel protection. Doing so could lead to serious injury or death.** This device does not include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow its use in personnel safety applications. A sensor failure or malfunction can cause either an energized or de-energized sensor output condition.

VS2 Opposed-Mode Sensors 

## **Overview** 

VS2 Series miniature self-contained sensors are designed for precision sensing in small areas previously accessible only to remote or fiber optic models. Typical applications include mounting inside vibrating feeders and electronic component handling equipment.
