U-GAGE Q45U Series—Discrete

Product image

Overview

  • Offers 12 to 24V dc supply voltage with bipolar NPN or PNP output
  • Available with range of 100 to 1400 mm for short-range sensing, or 0.25 to 3.0 m for long-range sensing
  • Offers ON/OFF for detecting when the target is within or outside the range
  • Provides HIGH/LOW mode for detecting when the target is outside the configured range and for fill level control, web tensioning control and similar applications
  • Features programmable response speeds of 20, 40, 160 or 640 milliseconds for short-range models and 40, 80, 320 or 1280 milliseconds for long-range models
  • Simplifies setup with push-button TEACH programming of near/far limits of the sensing window
  • Accepts programming storage cards for fast, easy parameter changes

ON-State saturation voltage:less than 1.5V @ 10 mA; less than 2.0V @ 150 mA
Output Protection CircuitryProtected against false pulse on power-up and continuous overload or short-circuit of outputs
RepeatabilityShort-range models:±0.1% of measured distance (±0.25 mm min)
Long-range models:±0.1% of measured distance (±0.50 mm min)
Minimum Window LimitShort-range models:10 mm
Long-range models:25 mm
HysteresisShort-range models:
ON/OFF mode:5 mm
HIGH/LOW mode:0 mm
Long-range models:
ON/OFF mode:10 mm
HIGH/LOW mode:0 mm
AdjustmentsThe following may be selected by a 4-position DIP switch located on top of the sensor, beneath a transparent o-ring sealed acrylic cover: Switch 1:output normally open/normally closed (pump-in/pump-out)
Switch 2:HIGH/LOW level control mode or ON/OFF presence sensing mode
Switch 3 & 4:response speed selection (digital filter)
Indicators5-segment moving dot LED indicates the position of the target within the sensing window 3 LED indicators:Green, Yellow and Red
Green ON steady:power to sensor is ON
Green flashing:output is overloaded
Yellow ON steady:outputs are conducting (RUN mode) and programming status (SETUP mode)
Red flashing:indicates relative signal strength of received echo
ConstructionMolded PBT thermoplastic polyester housing, o-ring sealed transparent acrylic top cover, and stainless-steel hardware. Q45U sensors are designed to withstand 1200 psi washdown. The base of cabled models has a 1/2 inch-14NPS internal conduit thread
Environmental RatingLeakproof design, rated IEC IP67; NEMA 6P
Connections5-conductor 2 m or 9 m shielded PVC-jacketed attached cable, or 5-pin Euro- or Mini-style quick-disconnect fitting. QD cables are ordered separately.
Operating ConditionsTemperature:-25° to +70° C
Relative humidity:100%
Vibration and Mechanical ShockAll models meet Mil. Std. 202F requirements. Method 201A (Vibration: 10 to 60 Hz max. double amplitude 0.06”, maximum acceleration 10G). Method 213B conditions H&I (Shock: 75G with unit operating; 100G for non-operation). Also meets IEC 947-5-2 requirements: 30G, 11 milliseconds duration, half-sine wave.
Application NotesEnable/Disable:Connect yellow wire to +5 to 24V dc to enable sensor and 0 to +2V dc to disable sensor. When the sensor is disabled, the last output state is held until the sensor is re-enabled. The wire must be held to the appropriate voltage for at least 40 milliseconds for the sensor to enable or disable.
Minimum target size:
Short-range models:10 x 10 mm aluminum plate @ 500 mm; 35 x 35 mm aluminum plate @ 1.4 m
Long-range models:50 x 50 mm aluminum plate @ 3.0 m
