MAXI-BEAM(R) Sensor Heads Banner MAXI-BEAM(R) sensors are highly versatile, self-contained, modularized photoelectric sensing controls that are ideally suited to industrial en-vironments. The basic MAXI-BEAM is an ON/OFF switch consisting of three modules (sensor head, power block, and wiring base) and a unique, patented, rotatable "programming ring" that enables you to program your choice of "light" or "dark" operate mode, sensing range, and response time. Some MAXI-BEAM sensor heads: models RSBC, RSBDSR, RSBLV, and RSBF (shown with bifurcated fiber optic assembly attached). MAXI-BEAM sensor heads have an easily-accessible multi-turn SENSITIVITY control for precise adjustment of system gain. Interchangeable sensor heads are rotatable in 90-degree increments and are available in retroreflective, diffuse, opposed, convergent, fixed-field proximity, and fiberoptic sensing modes. Each sensor head also includes Banner's exclusive, patented AIDTM circuit (Alignment Indicating Device*), which features an LED alignment indicator that lights whenever the sensor "sees" its own modulated light source, and pulses at a rate proportional to the strength of the received light signal. A wide selection of MAXI-BEAM power block modules is available to interface the sensor head to the circuit to be controlled. The plug-in design of the wiring base enables easy exchange of the entire sensing electronics without disturbing field wiring. Optional customer-installable logic modules easily convert the basic ON/OFF MAXI-BEAM into either a one-shot or delay logic function control, with several programmable timing ranges for each function. MAXI-BEAM sensors are ruggedly constructed of molded VALOX(R) to NEMA standards 1, 3, 4, 12, and 13, and have interchangeable molded acrylic lenses. Modules simply snap and bolt together, with no interwiring necessary. Module interfaces are o-ring and quad-ring sealed for the ultimate in dust, dirt, and moisture resistance. To order a MAXI-BEAM, follow these steps: 1) Select a sensor head module, 2) Select a power block module, 3) Select a wiring base, 4) Select a logic module (if needed), 5) Select accessories as needed (see Banner product catalog).

Useful in many high-contrast color registration applications. FIXED-FIELD Mode 3 Fixed-field sensor heads have an emitter element and two differently-aimed receiver elements. This creates a RSBFF models high-gain sensing field able to detect objects of low reflectivity, and a sharp Far limit cutoff at: 50mm (model RSBFF50) or far-limit sensing cutoff of 50mm (2 inches) or 100mm (4 inches) which 100mm (model RSBFF100) ignores backgrounds beyond cutoff.

The model RSBFP will not operate with 2-wire power blocks (models R2PBA and R2PBB). For information on the complete line of Banner plastic fiber optics, see Banner product catalog. Model RSBFP is a visible-light sensor head designed for use with plastic fiber optics. It is compatible with all standard Banner plastic fiber optic assemblies (see Banner product catalog). In order to function properly, the RSBFP must be programmed for the "HS" response mode. The RSBFP is not for use with glass fiber optics (instead use model RSBF or RSBFV).

Model RSBFV is a visible-light sensor head designed for use with glass fiber optics. It is compatible with all standard Banner glass fiber optic assemblies (see Banner product catalog). In order to function properly, the RSBFV must be programmed for the "HS" response mode. The RSBFV is not for use with plastic fiber optics (instead use RSBFP). Programming the MAXI-BEAM Sensor Head MAXI-BEAM sensor heads may be programmed for sensor response time (and range) and for LIGHT/DARK operate. Each sensor head is supplied with a programming ring which attaches below the the sensor head by a system of pegs. There are four programming notches around the perimeter of the ring. To program the sensor head, simply find the notch which will line up with the desired program combination (see diagram, right). NOTE: the programming ring may have to be turned upside-down in order to line up the notch with the program. If LIGHT O PE R AT E i s sel ected, the M A X I -B E A M output wi l l energi ze on a dark -to-l i ght transi ti on. If DARK OPERATE is selected, the MAXI BEAM output will energize on a light-to-dark transition. In the illustration, the MAXI-BEAM is set for high speed (HS) operation in the LIGHT OPERATE output state. See the information about each individual sensor head for the response time and range associated with each setting (HP, 2W, HS, SP). NOTE: when programming the RSBE, RSBSER, or RSBEF emitter, select the mode which is programmed for the receiver. EXCEPTION: if the receiver is programmed for the 2-wire (2W) mode, select high power (HP) on the emitter. WARNING MAXI-BEAM photoelectric presence sensors do NOT include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow their use in personnel safety applications. A sensor failure or malfunction can result in either an energized or de-energized sensor output condition. Never use these products as sensing devices for personnel protection. Their use as safety devices may create an unsafe condition which could lead to serious injury or death. Only MACHINE- GUARD and PERIMETER- GUARD Systems, and other systems so designated, are designed to meet OSHA and ANSI machine safety standards for point- of -operation guarding devices. Nother Banner sensors or controls are designed to meet these standards, and they must NOT be used as sensing devices for personnel protection. 5 Dimension Drawing Functional Schematic, MAXI-BEAM Sensor Heads Banner Engineering Corp Limited Warranty Banner Engineering Corp. warrants its products to be free from defects in material and workmanship for one year following the date of shipment.
