The Banner Engineering D12 Sensor Family offers models to solve nearly any fiber optic sensing requirement.
D12 High Performance Fiber Optic Sensors are self-contained sensors for 10 to 30V dc operation. They are housed in a compact 12 mm
wide package, designed for DIN-rail mounting. Most D12 Banner Photoelectric Sensor types are available with either an attached
cable or a 150 mm pigtail pico-type quick disconnect connector. The D12 Banner Sensor Family offers five product groups. Models are
available within each group for plastic or for glass fiber optic cables. Standard D12 sensors feature 500 ms (0.5 ms) response and
a 7-segment moving-dot LED bargraph display which indicates received signal strength. This feature greatly simplifies sensitivity
adjustment and fiber optic alignment, and provides a constant display of sensing system performance. In addition, flashing segments
of the display signal problems such as output overload or marginal sensing. |

D12 Expert Banner Sensor is the ultimate teach mode fiber optic sensor. D12E fiber optic sensors have simple
one-button programming. The TEACH mode automatically adjusts sensitivity to the optimal level. The D12E Banner photo electric
sensor offers exceptional sensing performance for either highpower or low contrast applications. The D12E Banner photo eye also
features an advanced and comprehensive LED status display, plus sensor self-diagnostics with a separate alarm output for marginal
signal conditions. High-speed D12 Banner Engineering models offer the same features as standard D12s, plus a switch for selecting
either 500 ms or 50 ms response. High-speed D12s excel in reliable sensing of fast-moving small parts. Models with suffix "FPY1" or
"FVY1" (when used in the 50 ms response mode) include a 20 ms pulse stretcher for use in applications where the load (or input
circuit) requires a signal which is longer than the sensing event.
High-power D12 Banner photoelectric sensors offer the highest optical power available in a fiber optic presence
sensing device. They are intended for applications where high excess gain is required for long sensing range, small diameter
fibers, or optically-demanding sensing environments. High-power D12 models include the 7-segment display and the self-diagnostic
features of standard D12 models. Models for plastic fiber optic
Turck Cables are standard, and models for glass fibers are available by
special order. AC-coupled D12 sensors are designed for applications in which the light signal change is so small that a
conventional sensitivity control is difficult or impossible to adjust. AC-coupled D12s perform well in applications where the
sensing contrast is even too small for D12 Expert sensors. D12DAB6 Series Banner sensors have an automatic gain control (AGC)
system that locks onto the light signal and continually adjusts the emitter for maximum performance. The ac-coupled amplifier
reliably reacts to very small signal changes, resulting in a "pulse" output for each sensing event. Typical applications for
ac-coupled sensors include thread break detection, web flaw detection, and detection of small, randomly-falling parts.
Banner fiber optics allow you to "pipe" light into otherwise inaccessible and hostile enviornments. Banner
Engineering has the broadest, most readily-available line of fibers in the world. Choose from a huge selection of standard fibers
in virtually all shapes and sizes. Custom fibers can be quickly and easily designed for unique applications, and built to your
exact specifications. Choose from two general styles: individual fibers used in pairs in the opposed sensing mode, and bifurcated
fibers that emit and receive light signals in the same assembly. Banner Engineering plastic fibers offer a uniquely affordable
solution because they are inexpensive and many can be easily cut to length during installation using the cutting device supplied
with each fiber. They bend very easily to fit precisely where you want them. They are also extremely flexible and are available in
coiled versions for use in a variety of applications including those requiring articulated or reciprocating motion. Choose
diameters of 0.25, 0.5, 1.0, or 1.5 millimeter. The larger the fiber diameter, the higher the attainable excess gain.
Banner glass fiber optics overcome a multitude of environmental challenges including temperatures to 480C (900F),
corrosive materials, and extreme moisture. And, because of their low mass, Banner glass fibers can withstand high levels of shock
and vibration. They are inherently immune to extreme electrical noise. Banner Engineering glass fibers can be quickly custom-built
for your own unique application, and can even be designed to create a sensing beam that precisely profiles the object you need to
detect. D12 Expert Photoelectric Sensors offer a unique one-button programming
design which provides security for your settings, yet is simple to set up. Like standard D12 Series sensors, D12E Banner sensors
may be used for applications where high sensing power is needed. However, unlike standard and high power D12 sensors, the D12E
series sensors also excel in low contrast applications, which require low sensitivity settings. The D12E TEACH mode evaluates the
light and dark sensing conditions and automatically adjusts the sensitivity to the optimal level. Sensor setup is fast, easy, and
accurate. The D12E Banner Photo Eye also features an advanced and comprehensive LED status display, plus sensor self-diagnostics
with a separate alarm output for marginal signal conditions.
