ez-beam m18 series fixed-field sensor setup tips ez-beam m18 series sensors page 4 banner engineering corp. ? minneapolis, u.s.a. website: http://www.baneng.com ? tel: 888.373.6767 general for highest sensitivity, the sensor-to-object distance should be such that the object will be sensed at or near the point of maximum excess gain (see page 3). the background must be placed beyond the cutoff distance. following these two guidelines makes it possible to detect objects of low reflectivity, even against close-in reflective backgrounds. in the drawings and discussion on this page, the letters e, r1, and r2 identify how the sensor s three optical elements (emitter ?? near detector ?1? and far detector ?2? line up across the face of the sensor. in figures 2, 3, and 4, these elements align vertically; in figure 5, they align horizontally. note how the position of the tabs on the front of the sensor helps to define the sensing axis of the sensor (figure 1, right). the sensing axis becomes important in situations like those illustrated in figures 4 and 5 below. 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 (r1) than to the far detector (r2). the result is a false on condition (figure 2). use of a diffusely-reflective (matte) background will cure this problem. other possible solutions are to either angle the sensor or angle the background (in any plane) so that the background does not reflect back to the sensor (see figure 3). an object beyond the cutoff distance, either moving or stationary (and when posi- tioned as shown in figure 4), can cause unwanted triggering of the sensor because it reflects more light to the near detector than to the far detector. remedy the problem easily by rotating the sensor 90 (figure 5) to align the sensing axis horizontally. 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. unwanted triggering of the sensor from an object beyond the cutoff can also be caused by attempting to sense a small object moving perpendicular to the sensor face, or by an object moving through the off-center position shown in figure 4. making the object larger, centering the sensor relative to the object, or rotating the sensor to place the sensing axis perpendicular to the longer dimension of the object (figure 5) will solve the problem. figure 1. sensing axis as a general rule, the most reliable sensing of an object approaching from the side occurs when the line of approach is parallel to the sensing axis. sensing axis r2 r1 e e r2 r1 e = emitter r1 = near detector r2 = far detector m18ff sensor core of emitted beam cutoff distance reflective background strong direct reflection to r1 fixed sensing field figure 2. reflective background problem e r2 r1 e = emitter r1 = near detector r2 = far detector m18ff sensor core of emitted beam cutoff distance reflective background strong direct reflection away from sensor fixed sensing field figure 3. reflective background solution e r2 r1 e = emitter r1 = near detector r2 = far detector area of r1 response area of r2 response area of r1 and r2 response reflective background or moving object m18ff sensor cutoff distance fixed sensing field r1 response r2 response figure 4. object beyond cutoff problem e, r2, r1 e = emitter r1 = near detector r2 = far detector area of r1 and r2 response m18ff sensor reflective background or moving object cutoff distance fixed sensing field figure 5. object beyond cutoff solution
