E Series OMNI-BEAM™ Sensors
Banner E Series OMNI-BEAM™ sensors are a line of modular, self-contained photoelectric sensors designed for applications where economy
and performance are important. E Series OMNI-BEAMs have SPDT (single-pole double-throw, form “C”) electromechanical relay output and
employ a power block that operates from either 24 to 250V ac or 24 to 36V dc. Sensing ranges of E Series OMNI-BEAMs are in most cases
identical to those of standard model OMNI-BEAMs.
E Series OMNI-BEAM sensors have two major modules: a sensor head and a power block. (NOTE: sensor heads are interchangeable and are
ordered individually.) LIGHT or DARK operate output is selected via an easily-accessible internal switch.
LED indicators for Sense and Load are located atop the sensor head beneath a transparent gasketed acrylic cover. Optional logic module
boards slip easily into the sensor head and provide adjustable delay or adjustable pulse timer logic.
The Sense indicator lights whenever an object is sensed. The LOAD indicator lights whenever the sensor’s output relay is energized. This
indicator is especially useful when a timing logic module is used and SENSE and LOAD conditions are not concurrent.
Their cross-hole mounting design with standard limit-switch hole spacing enables OMNI-BEAM E Series sensors to be mounted from the front,
either side, or the back, making them ideal for conveyor and other production line applications. E Series OMNI-BEAMs may also be mounted
using their 30mm threaded base mounting hub. A versatile 2-axis stainless steel accessory mounting bracket (model SMB30MM) and a PBT
swivel-mount bracket (model SMB30SM) are available.
E Series opposed mode emitters use an emitter power block, either model OPEJE or OPEJEQD. All other E Series sensors use either model
OPEJ5 or OPEJ5QD*. Models OPEJE and OPEJ5 have a 1/2’’ NPS integral internal conduit thread and are supplied with a 6-foot PVC-covered
cable. Models OPEJEQD and OPEJ5QD (“QD” models) have NEMA 4-rated quick-disconnect Mini-style connectors. All models are housed in
tough, molded PBT housings. The power block electronics are epoxy-encapsulated. When assembled, all parts of E Series OMNI-BEAMs are
fully gasketed.
Diffuse Mode
Diffuse (proximity) mode sensors detect objects by sensing their own emitted light reflected from the object. They are ideal for use when the
reflectivity and profile of the detected object is sufficient to return a large percentage of emitted light back to the sensor. Model OSEDX is the
first choice for diffuse (proximity) mode applications when there are no background objects to falsely return light.
Retroreflective
The visible red sensing beam of retroreflective sensors makes them very easy to align. The anti-glare model (suffix “AG”) polarizes the emitted
light and filters out unwanted reflections, making sensing possible in otherwise unsuitable applications. Use “AG” models only in very clean
environments and use with the model BRT-3 3’’ reflector. For detailed information on retroreflective targets, see the Banner Sensor catalog.
Fiber Optic
Model OSEFX is an excellent choice for glass fiber optic applications compatible with the use of an infrared sensing beam and where faster
sensor response is not required. Excess gain is very high; as a result, opposed individual fibers operate reliably in many hostile environments.
Also, special miniature bifurcated fiber optic assemblies with bundle sizes as small as 0.5 mm (0.020’’) in diameter may be used successfully
for diffuse mode sensing. The excess gain curves and beam patterns illustrate response with standard 1.5 mm (0.060’’) diameter and 3 mm
(0.12’’) diameter bundles. Response for smaller or larger bundle sizes may be interpolated.
Plastic fiber optics are lower in cost than glass fiber optics and are ideal for use in situations where the environmental conditions allow. They
are easily cut to length in the field and are available in a variety of sensing end styles. For further information, refer to the Banner sensor
catalog.
