Q45BB6 Series Specifications
Supply Voltage and Current 10 to 30V dc (10% maximum ripple), at less than 50 mA (exclusive of load)
Supply Protection Circuitry Protected against reverse polarity and transient voltages
Output Configuration Bipolar: one current sourcing (PNP) and one current sinking (NPN) open-collector transistor
Output Rating 250 mA maximum each output up to 50°C, derated to 150 mA at 70°C (derates 5 mA/°C)
Off-state leakage current less than 1 microamp
Output saturation voltage (both outputs) less than 1 volt at 10 mA and less than 2 volts at 250 mA
Output Protection Circuitry Protected against false pulse on power-up and continuous overload or short circuit of outputs
Output Response Time Opposed mode: 2 milliseconds ON, 1 millisecond OFF
All other sensing modes: 2 milliseconds ON/OFF
(NOTE: 100 millisecond delay on power-up. Output is non-conducting during this time.)
Repeatability Opposed mode: 0.25 milliseconds
All other sensing modes: 0.5 milliseconds
Response time and repeatability specifications are independent of signal strength.
Adjustments Beneath sensor’s transparent cover: Light/Dark Operate select switch and multi-turn Sensitivity control
(allows precise sensitivity setting – turn clockwise to increase gain). Optional logic and logic/display mod-
ules have adjustable timing functions (see page 10).
Indicators Indicator LEDs are clearly visible beneath a raised transparent Lexan®dome on top of the sensor.
Power (green) LED lights whenever 10 to 30V dc power is applied, and flashes to indicate output overload
or output short circuit
Signal (red) AID™ System LED lights whenever the sensor sees its modulated light source, and pulses at a
rate proportional to the strength of the received light signal
Load (yellow) LED lights whenever the output is energized
Optional 7-element LED signal strength display modules
Construction Molded reinforced thermoplastic polyester housing, o-ring-sealed transparent Lexan®cover, molded acrylic
lenses, and stainless steel hardware. Q45s are designed to withstand 1200 psi washdown. The base of
cabled models has a 1/2" NPS integral internal conduit thread.
Environmental Rating NEMA 6P, IEC IP67
Connections PVC-jacketed 2 m (6.5') or 9 m (30') cables; or 4-pin Mini-style (“Q” suffix models) or 4-pin Euro-style
(“Q5” suffix models) quick-disconnect (QD) fittings are available. QD cables are ordered separately; see
page 10.
Operating Conditions Temperature: -40° to +70°C (-40° to +158°F)
Maximum relative humidity: 90% at 50°C (non-condensing)
Application Notes Optional output timing modules are available. See page 10 for more information.
