MULT-BM ensors 78 LR4887 Banner MULT-BM sensors are compact modular self contained photoelectric switches. ach MULT-BM consists of three components: scanner block, power block, and logic module. The scanner block contains the complete modulated photoelectric amplifier as well as the emitter and receiver optoelements. t also contains the sensing optics and the housing for the other two modules. The power block provides the interface between the scanner block and the external circuit. t contains a power supply for the MULT-BM plus a switching device to interface the circuit to be controlled. The logic module interconnects the power block and scanner block both electrically and mechanically. t provides the desired timing logic function (if any), plus the ability to program the output for either light- or dark-operate. The emitters of MULT-BM emitter-receiver pairs do not require a logic module. mitter scanner blocks are supplied a bladepin to interconnect the scanner block and power block. This modular design, field-replaceable power block and logic module, permits over 5, sensor configurations, resulting in exactly the right sensor for any photoelectric application. There are two families of MULT-BM sensors: - and 4-wire, and -wire. Three- and four-wire MULT-BMs offer the greatest selection of sensor configurations. They permit either ac or dc operation and offer the fastest response times and the greatest sensing ranges. Two-wire MULT-BMs are used in ac-powered applications where simplicity and convenience of wiring are important. They are physically and electrically interchangeable heavy-duty limit switches. The circuitry of all MULT-BM components is encapsulated in rugged, corrosion-resistant VLO housings, which meet or exceed M,,, and ratings. Most MULT- BM scanner blocks include Banner's patented lignment ndicating Device (D ) which lights a top-mounted LD when the sensor sees its own modulated light source and pulses the LD at a rate proportional to the received light signal. Most MULT-BM sensor assemblies are UL listed and certified by (see power block listings). ll MULT-BM components (except power block models PBR and PBR) are totally solidstate for unlimited life. omposite Functional chematic, - and 4-wire ensors
election of MULT-BM omponents MULT-BM sensors are made up of three components: scanner block, power block, and logic module. This is true for all MULT- BMs the exception of opposed mode emitter units which require only a power block (no logic module). Upper over (lens) (supplied canner Block) Logic Module canner Block ousing The first decision in the component selection process is to determine which family of MULT-BM sensors is appropriate for the application: - and 4-wire, or -wire. ext, decide which scanner block (in the selected family) is best for the application. The guidelines in the catalog introduction will help you to determine the best sensing mode. Then narrow the choice by comparing the specifications listed in the following charts and on the pages referenced in the charts. Finally, choose a power block and logic module to complete the MULT-BM assembly. omponents snap together out interwiring to form a complete photoelectric sensing system that meets your exact requirements while maintaining the simplicity of a self-contained sensor. f you have any questions about selecting MULT-BM components, please contact your Banner sales engineer or call Banner's pplications Department at (6) 544-64 during normal business hours.

The model BT fiber optic assembly used a model L9 or L6F lens and a high speed scanner block is an excellent system for retroreflective code reading or for almost any short range retroreflective sensing application. Response time of a MULT-BM sensor is also a function of the power block. For this reason, only power blocks which switch dc (e.g. PBT, PBP, PBO, PBT, etc) should be used if the fast response time of the scanner block is to be utilized.
