Product catalog summary

Overview: This document provides detailed information on Banner Engineering's label sensor solutions, focusing on three main series: SLE5, SLE3, and SLU4. Each series is designed for specific label detection needs in industrial automation settings.

SLE5 Series - High Speed Optical Label Sensor:

Designed for single-layer and multilayer label detection with a 5 mm slot width and 50 mm slot depth.
Features infrared LED for detecting labels on translucent backing paper.
Offers a 0.5 mm minimum label size or gap width, suitable for various products.
Equipped with LED indicators for output and TEACH status, facilitating visual monitoring and troubleshooting.
Voltage range: 10 to 30 V dc, with PNP and NPN output options.
Connection options include unterminated 5-wire PVC cable and integral 4-pin M8 male quick-disconnect connector.

SLE3 Series - Optical Label Slot Sensor:

Optimized for sensing adhesive labels on a roll of backing paper.
Utilizes high-intensity infrared LED to reduce sensitivity to web flutter.
Features a fast response time of 35 μs, suitable for high-speed rewinders.
Quick setup with a one-press (Set) button and oversized indicator for performance monitoring.
Voltage range: 4.75 to 30 V dc, with PNP and NPN output options.
Connection options include unterminated 4-wire PVC cable and integral 4-pin M8 male quick-disconnect connector.

SLU4 Series - Ultrasonic Clear Label Sensor:

Designed for reliable detection of clear and opaque labels using ultrasonic technology.
Features rugged anodized aluminum housing with a removable stainless steel gap plate.
Includes an OLED alphanumeric display for easy configuration and monitoring.
Voltage range: 12 to 30 V dc, with bipolar NPN/PNP output options.
Connection options include unterminated 5-wire PVC cable and integral 5-pin M12 or 4-pin M8 male quick-disconnect connectors.
Advanced diagnostics with dual numerical OLED display for signal strength and threshold value feedback.

Applications and Challenges:

The SLE5 series is ideal for ensuring consistent label placement on packages, addressing challenges in detecting label position for self-adhesive labels.
The SLE3 series is suitable for high-speed labeling processes, such as in chocolate production, where quick and accurate label detection is crucial.
The SLU4 series is effective for detecting transparent labels at high speeds, minimizing changeover time in automated labeling systems.
