Banner LM5 16294 Multi-Beam Logic Module

Banner LM5 16294 Multi-Beam Logic Module

The Banner LM5 16294 Multi-Beam Logic Module is a versatile component designed to enhance the functionality of Banner’s Multi-Beam photoelectric sensors. This logic module introduces an adjustable on-delay timing function, allowing for precise control over sensor response times.

Key Features

• On-Delay Functionality: The LM5 module provides a true on-delay feature, ensuring that the input signal must be present for a predetermined duration before the output is energized. This is particularly useful in applications where a consistent input signal over time is required to trigger an action.
• Adjustable Timing Range: Users can fine-tune the on-delay timing from 0.15 to 15 seconds, offering flexibility to meet various operational requirements.
• Seamless Integration: The module interconnects the power block and scanner block both electrically and mechanically using a unique blade-and-socket connector concept, ensuring a secure and reliable connection.
• Light/Dark Operation Selection: A jumper is included to select between light and dark operation modes, providing adaptability to different sensing environments.

Applications

The LM5 logic module is ideal for scenarios such as detecting jams on conveyor lines. For instance, if a beam is interrupted for longer than the preset period, it can indicate a product jammed in the light beam, prompting necessary corrective actions.
