For other cable/connector options: * 9 m cables: add suffix "W/30" to the model number (e.g., VS1AN5CV10 W/30). * 150 mm (6") pigtail with threaded 3-pin Pico-style QD: add suffix "Q" to the model number (e.g., VS1AN5CV10Q). A model with a QD connector requires a mating cable; see Quick-Disconnect (QD) Cordsets on page 5. P/N _56465_ rev. D 11/2009 _564 65_N VS1 Series Overview VS1 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, where larger sensors will not fit. The sensing energy of a convergent-mode sensor is concentrated at the specified focus point (see Models on page 1). Convergent-mode sensors are less sensitive to background reflections, compared with diffuse-mode sensors. Contact the factory if background reflections are a problem. Installation Notes Included with each sensor is a hardware packet containing two stainless steel M2 x 0.4 x 16 mm Phillips pan-head machine screws, flat washers, lock washers, and hex nuts. To mount the sensor, use the supplied flat washer against the front surface of the sensor housing, between it and the screw head. If mounting to one of the optional brackets, place the lock washer against the back of the bracket, followed by the nut. If mounting directly to a threaded hole, place the lock washer between the screw head and the flat washer (see Figure 1). For best results, mount the VS1 where it is protected from moisture, high humidity and dirt. Figure 1. Sensor Mounting 1. 2. 3. 4.

Not To Be Used for Personnel Protection Never use this product as a sensing device for personnel protection. Doing so could lead to serious injury or death This product 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 denergized sensor output condition. Consult your Banner Safety Products catalog for safety products that meet OSHA, ANSI and IEC standards for personnel protection. 2 Banner Engineering Corp. - Minneapolis, MN USA - www.bannerengineering.com Tel: 763.544.3164 P/N _56465_ rev.
