Banner MULTI-BEAM sensors are compact modular self contained photoelectric switches. Each MULTI-BEAM
consists of three components: scanner block, power block, and logic module. The scanner block contains the complete
modulated Photoelectric Amplifier as well as the emitter
and receiver optoelements. It also contains the sensing optics and the housing for the other two modules. The power block
provides the interface between the scanner block and the external circuit. It contains a
Power Supply for the MULTI-BEAM plus a switching device to
interface the circuit to be controlled.
The logic module interconnects the power block and scanner block both electrically and mechanically. It
provides the desired timing logic function (if any), plus the ability to program the output for either light- or
dark-operate. The emitters of MULTI-BEAM emitter-receiver pairs do not require a logic module. Emitter scanner blocks are
supplied with a bladepin to interconnect the scanner block and power block. This modular design, with field-replaceable
power block and logic module, permits over 5,000 sensor configurations, resulting in exactly the right sensor for any
photoelectric application.
There are two families of MULTI-BEAM sensors: 3- and 4-wire, and 2-wire. Three- and four-wire MULTI-BEAMs
offer the greatest selection of sensor configurations. They permit either ac or dc operation and offer the fastest response
times and the greatest sensing ranges. Two-wire MULTI-BEAMs are used in ac-powered applications where simplicity and convenience
of wiring are important. They are physically and electrically interchangeable with
Heavy-Duty Limit Switches. The circuitry of
all MULTI-BEAM components is encapsulated within rugged, corrosion-resistant VALOX housings, which meet or exceed NEMA 1, 3, 12,
and 13 ratings. Most MULTIBEAM scanner blocks include Banner's patented Alignment Indicating Device (AID) which lights a
top-mounted LED when the sensor sees its own modulated light source and pulses the LED at a rate proportional to the received
light signal. Most MULTI-BEAM sensor assemblies are UL listed and certified by CSA. All MULTI-BEAM components (except power block
models 2PBR and 2PBR2) are totally solidstate for unlimited life.
MULTI-BEAM sensors are made up of three components: scanner block, power block, and logic module. This is true
for all MULTIBEAMs with the exception of opposed mode emitter units which require only a power block (no logic module). The first
decision in the component selection process is to determine which family of MULTI-BEAM sensors is appropriate for the application:
3- and 4-wire, or 2-wire.
Next, decide which scanner block (within the selected family) is best for the application. The guidelines in the
catalog introduction will help you to determine the best sensing mode. Finally, choose a power block and logic module to complete
the MULTI-BEAM assembly. Components snap together without interwiring to form a complete photoelectric sensing system that meets
your exact requirements while maintaining the simplicity of a self-contained sensor.
