RPS-409A-IS Intrinsically Safe Self Contained Sensor - Migatron - #1

Text version of the page

Migatron Corporation - 2002 The RPS-409A-IS is an intrinsically safe, analog ultrasonic sensor. It is a self-contained sensor in a 30mm PVC barrel housing. It is powered by 16-30VDC with reverse polarity protection. The RPS-409A-IS has a short circuit protected analog 0-10VDC output. The analog voltage is a fixed volts per inch based on the maximum range of the unit. For example using the RPS-409A-80-IS, the output is a linear 0.125 volts per inch. A target placed 10 inches from the sensor will result in an output signal of 1.25 volts or a target placed at 80 inches from the sensor will result in an output of 10 volts. . Intrinsically Safe .

UL Listed: File # E226209 Features The RPS-409A-IS has built-in temperature compensation to provide accurate readings throughout the entire operating temperature range. An LED indicator is provided. The LED is green when not detecting and changes to red when a target moves into place. The sensor is completely sealed and the connection is made by way of IP and NEMA rated cables. Besides the input and output lines there is a sync/enable line provided. This can be used for connecting multiple sensors together to prevent cross talk, or to fire the sensor at a particular time. The RPS-409A-IS is designed to take advantage of today's PLC and computer analog input cards. The numerical values that are programmed into the PLC or computer will determine the zero and span. If a set point or set points are required in the application, please refer to the Migatron SPC- 701, SPC-704, or M-1000 control products. Both the SPC-704 and M-1000 can also provide excitation power to drive the sensor. 0.00V @ 0" 10.0V @ 80" 1.25V @ 10"
