Performance spectrum
Checking stack height

Through-beam sensors that consist of a emitter and receiver can be
installed one on top of the other. Each through-beam sensor then
scans a specic stack height. The accuracy of the scan is within a
few millimeters, if apertures are used.
Querying the size and content of containers

The retroreective sensor (1) indicates the presence of the box.
The pulse duration can be used to count or measure box lengths.
The diffuse sensor (2) with background suppression checks the
contents of the box. Its range is adjustable.
Tracking a hoist
The through-beams are assigned so that the uppermost metal plate
interrupts the light beam. The beam path is open when the metal
plate is removed for processing. The through-beams provide a
switching signal, and the hoist is automatically reset to the height of
a metal plate.

Checking drill breakage

Using a through-beam sensor with double-slotted apertures, a drill
breakage check can be carried out from 2 m away. Drills larger than
approx. 2 mm diameter can be checked this way. If even smaller
drills (down to 1 mm ) have to be checked, then a laser through-
beam sensor can be used.

Querying packaging contents

A through-beam sensor is used in order to query the content of a
package (e.g., bandages). To do so, the emitter and receiver are
arranged so that the light beam goes through the packaging. If the
packaging is empty, the light is sufcient to light up the receiver. If
it is lled, the packaging contents interrupt the emitter's light beam.
And the sensor switches.
Querying ll level in transparent containers

During the ll level query in a transparent container (cylinder), a
diffuse sensor with ber optics is used as a through-beam sensor.
If no liquid is at the sensor height, the light beam is not broken, so
that it hits the receiver. If enough uid is available, the light beam
is deected away from the receiver. The switch changes its output
condition.

Detecting the bead of a camshaft

To detect whether a bead is present, a diffuse sensor with ber
optics is used. This ber optic is arranged on a level parallel to the
camshaft. If a bead is present on the camshaft, the light beam is
interrupted. With no bead, the beam path is free.
Checking the quality of workpieces

Multiple sensors with ber optic attachments simultaneously check
different features of a workpiece.
Only if all drill holes, screws, dimensional accuracies, surface
qualities etc. are present may the workpiece be processed further.
Later failures and downtime are thus avoided.

Sorting parts
In order to be able to sort parts of various heights, a through-beam
sensor is used. To do so, a teach-in process is used so that taller Checking threads
parts interrupt the light beam and can be sorted out. The quick and Prior to assembling nuts, a
secure teach-in enables quick adaptation to changed conditions. check needs to be made to
determine whether a thread is
present or not. If the thread is
present, they will reect the light
back to the ber optics and the
sensor will operate.
If the thread is missing, there will
be a total reection on the blank
wall of the drill hole, and as a
result, no light will be reected to
the ber optics. The sensor does
not switch.

Small size big performance

Diffuse, retroreective and through-beam sensors are available in a
cylindrical M8 housing. The sensors stand out with ease of installation
and xed sensing distances and ranges. They are small, robust,
exible and affordable.
Small photoelectric sensors open up possibilities in highly dynamic
applications such as robot arms. This is precisely where components
that have very low weight and small dimensions while retaining high
switching precision are in demand.

BOS Q08M
BOS Q08M
Diffuse sensor, reection and through-beam sensor are now also

available in the block-shaped housing with 8 mm edge length. They
provide the small sensors solutions in highly dynamic applications
such as robot arms. That is precisely where components that have
very low-weight and small dimensions while retaining high switching
precision are in demand.
Reliably detect the smallest parts

Balluff through-beam sensors BOS Q08M are innovative, compact
products that reach a high performance level. Nothing else produces
comparable results under similar conditions. These sensors are
therefore particularly recommended if there is little space available.
A focused light beam is able to detect even the smallest of parts,
grooves or holes reliably. In this way, they check things like heights
very reliably. And in cramped systems, the high-performance,
compact units are also characterized by the fact that their ne laser
beam (PinPoint laser/red light) can be aligned very precisely in the
middle of closely set parts to ensure reliable detection.
Small design for small spaces

Rugged metal housing
Reliable detection of small parts up to
0.4 mm (PinPoint red light) or 0.28 mm (laser)

Photoelectric Standard Sensors BOS 2K
BOS 2K
Requirements such as extremely tight mounting spaces under

the most difcult of conditions are easily handled by the sub-mini
BOS 2K series.
The electronic circuitry is housed in a plastic enclosure just
20.612.57.6 mm. Metal sleeves in the housing ensure secure and
simple mounting.
The laser-like, visible light spot makes precise small-parts detection
possible. Unmatched ranges up to 1.2 m and fast response times
ensure compatibility with dynamic applications.
The BOS 2K series is a complete series with diffuse sensors,

retroreective sensors and through-beam sensor as well as diffuse
sensors with background suppression. That means this series offers
the complete functionality demanded of a modern sensor series.

BOS 6K
Due to its high performance, the BOS 6K can be used almost Features
anywhere. When space is at a premium, it is particularly Teach-in-button and control line
advantageous. This is because its small size allows better integration Dynamic teach-in possible (i. e., without stopping the machine)
of the sensors into the machine. Red light and background Multi-function display visible from any direction
suppression make the sensor extremely user-friendly. Disable buttons
Additionally, there are multiple varieties of lasers for an absolute Versions with 3- or 4-pin M8-plug
detection of small parts, so that even objects smaller than 1 mm can or with 2 m cable
be accurately measured. IP 67 protection
Calibration using the control lines means the sensor can be installed Red light and laser versions
at virtually inaccessible locations. Dynamic teach-in in running
operation means less attention needs to be paid to the sensors. Applications

BOS 50K
The new light barriers and diffuse sensors in the BOS 50K series
combine top performance and compact dimensions. Thanks to
their long range, these all-rounders are suitable for use in numerous
sectors, ranging from the automotive industry to the woodwork-
ing industry. The background suppression is particularly impressive
with an almost color-independent detection of objects and that at
maximum sensing distance.
The most important features at a glance

Reliable object detection even at large distances
Real background suppression for a sensing distance of
up to 2 m even on dark objects
Simple alignment due to bright, clearly visible beam spot
Simple and fast setting with potentiometer
Through-beam sensor with test input for function check
Varied and time-saving assembly options

BOS 63M
The BOS 63M is a specialist among the diffuse sensors with

regard to background suppression. The laser makes it ideally suited
for detecting objects from far away when they are right in front of a
background. The precise laser beam detects even small objects or
object details from great distances.
With two solid 4-turn potentiometers, the two switching outputs
can be congured independently and exactly. An integrated error
indicator informs you about the current sensor status.

Photoelectric
Sensors
for object detection
Special applications need special sensors. Our special photoelectric
sensors solve very special tasks with reliability and dependability. For
instance, color sensors reliably detect even the slightest color differ-
ences. The rst-class True Color Sensor is at home in quality control
as well as sorting systems. Contrast sensors and luminescence sen-
sors are perfectly suited for detection tasks, such as reading marks
on packaging and sensing ll levels, determining contours, measur-
ing thickness, etc.
Our broad selection of fork sensors with various widths and light
types allow optimal adaptation to many detection tasks. Angle sen-
sors or Dynamic optical windows are available as another alternative,
in addition to light grids for packaging larger objects involving longer
distances.
But even if it looks like there is no space for a photoelectric sensor,
Balluff provides a solution: ber optics in glass and plastic versions.

For customized solutions Fiber Optics
Customized solutions with plastic ber optics for

user assembly
Optical bers can be user-cut to the desired length from a 20 m roll.
This way you only use as much plastic optical ber as you actually
need. Considerable savings, especially if multiple sensors are used.
For simple applications you may not need an end piece. A simple
clamp will sufce. Or for convenience and exibility, select from
among the available end pieces. The plastic optical ber is simply
crimped into the end piece. Tedious gluing is eliminated. The end
piece can be removed at any time. Size 2.24.4 mm duplex cable

Photoelectric Special Sensors Contrast
Contrast sensors BKT
Sensor
Contrast sensors are high-resolution diffuse sensors that distinguish Applications

objects based on their gray values because of that color, brightness Sensing markings on packaging material
and reectivity have a strong effect on the measuring result. Synchronizing cutting or separating processes
The distance should be kept constant because gray values differ Checking for adhesive, ink and color
only slightly. The resolution of the sensor decreases with increasing Position checking of printing templates
sensing distance. Sensing objects based on contrast
Multiple series with various light types and functions are available for
the wide variety of uses for the sensors.

Photoelectric Special Sensors Color Sensors
Color sensors BFS
Applications
Color sensors open up a wide range of various applications, such as
in the packaging industry, robotics, automation, quality assurance or
in the process industry.
Versatile color sensors can be used to simplify and speed up auto-
mated processes, for detecting color nuance in rugs and textiles or
for color markings on packaging or labels.
The BFS 26K and BFS 27K series of color sensors operate using
pulsed white light, making them particularly insensitive to ambient
light. The light reected back from the object is received and pro-
cessed by three different receivers (red, green, blue).
The various light spot geometry congurations of the respective

sensors (round, rectangular or square) can reliably detect even the
smallest color markings.
Numerous special functions such as color scanning, pulse expan-
sion and blanking input provide additional application exibility.

Photoelectric Special Sensors Fork Sensors
Fork sensors BGL
Through-beam sensors are unsurpassed in their accuracy, their abil- Features

ity to distinguish small parts and ne detail and their operating reli- Integrated unit
ability. However, they do take some time to install and congure. This Rugged metal housing
does not apply to fork sensors, since the emitter and receiver are Glass optical surface
self-contained in one housing. Nevertheless, their accuracy, ability High resolution
to distinguish small parts and ne detail and their operating reliability Available in red light, laser light, IR or pin point
is outstanding. Laser fork sensors achieve the best results in these Identical housing dimensions for all light types
kinds of tasks. Balluff laser through-beam fork sensors are ideally 1010 mm fork arm, even for large fork openings
used for precisely positioning and reliably detecting fast-moving Stackable
processes and small parts. This opens a vast range of applications in Laser Class 1
robotics and automation. Applications
Parts sensing on conveyor and feed belts
Label sensing on transparent backing material
Part dimension checking
Counting parts in assembly lines
Tool break monitoring
Position checking
Feed control on automatic assembly equipment
Checking for completeness (e.g. connector pins)
Level monitoring of containers

Photoelectric distance sensors
for analog distance measurement
Photoelectric distance sensors are used when distances to objects
need to be measured or monitored or their precise position is to
determined. They support positioning tasks, material ow controls
and level detections in the most diverse of applications also across
large distances.
Users have a wide range of output signals available. Depending on

the type, these include analog current and voltage outputs or serial
interfaces. However, variants with IO-Link are available for a simple
and efcient connection to higher-level control systems.

Sensors in use
Position detection with Balluff inductive sensors: In foundry

work, exact position detection is absolutely essential for pouring
metal with exact precision. Balluff inductive sensors can be inte-
grated into the existing feed system and detect the stationary ladle
position right before pouring.
Assembly procedures require precise position of materials. Balluff

inductive sensors also identify metals over long distances and in
harsh environments.

Example: Need probe length of 1.125" combine sensor BES-516-200-S2-1.35-S21 with a 0.225" spacer.
(1.35" tube length - 0.225" spacer = 1.125" adjusted length)
Note: A difference of 0.005" will still have to be carefully considered when sizing a spacer and sensor to the cylinder.
- Spacer kits include a spacer, "O" ring, and appropriate mounting screws.
- Other spacer kits may be available: consult factory.
To order a spacer kit:

Use part number BESA-516-200-KIT-* (X.XXX) *measured in inches

Factor 1
Factor 1 sensors identify objects, such as those made of steel, alu-

minum or brass, with identical switching distances (without reduction
factor). These properties provide advantages in applications in which
the material of the objects to be detected can vary, or non-ferrous
metal can be detected with a high switching distance.
Moreover, all Factor 1-sensors are magnetic eld immune. Their
function is not impaired by strong electromagnetic elds (commonly
found in welding applications). Factor 1-sensors are not inuenced
in their switching behavior by welding currents up to 25 kA (at a
distance from the current conductor of approx. 5 cm).

Inductive Sensors with Special Properties Weld eld
Weld eld immune sensors/Factor 1
immune/Factor 1
Weld-immune sensors
for rough industrial applications
Magnetic eld immune: Insensitive to magnetic elds which are

created from electrical weld currents up to 25 kA (at a distance
to the current conductor of approx. 5 cm).
Weld spatter-resistant: Resistant to weld slag which is created

during welding processes.
Factor 1: Identical switching distance with metals such as steel,

stainless steel, aluminum or brass.
Magnetic eld
Current - Magnetic eld immune

conductor sensor
Error-free function depends on the magnitude of the welding

current and the distance of the sensor from the current carrying
line. Through constructive and switching technological measures,
magnetic eld immune sensors are not inuenced by magnetic
elds.

Large Housing Sensors

Certain inductive sensor applications call for exceptionally long
sensing ranges. With their large-diameter sensing coils, Balluffs large
housing inductive sensors meet these requirements. Available in
round housing diameters from 80 mm to 163 mm and in rectangular
housing dimensions of 100x35X35 mm or 200x35x35 mm, with
sensing distances up to100 mm in some models. A choice of AC or
DC versions suit a wide range of control interface needs.

Inductive sensors for analog distance measurement
Balluff inductive distance sensors BAW provide an absolute voltage-
or current signal that changes proportionally to the distance of a
metallic target. Objects of varying shape and size made of ferrous
or non-ferrous materials damp the sensor to different degrees. This
provides a simple way of detecting positions, distances and material
differences.

In injection molding machines, the clamping force of the tool is built up through
a toggle joint and a hydraulic cylinder. The extension of the machine tie rods is
thereby directly proportional to the clamping force, and can be easily deter-
mined using an inductive distance sensor.

Pulse stretching
Detecting fast motion

Rapid motions on machines
mean that the sensors are only
actuated for a short time. There-
fore, the sensor pulse can be
too short to guarantee a secure
evaluation. Due to its cycle time,
the controller does not detect the
output signal, with the conse-
quence that important informa-
tion in the controller sequence is
lost. This can pose a risk
to your machine!
The solution is the Balluff pulse

extender BES 516-IV 2.
For controlling this device, the
rising or falling edge of the sen-
sor output signal is sufcient
to generate a pulse that your
controller can recognize. The
length is adjustable from 2 ms to
1 sec. Small and space-saving,

Analog switching device for onsite assembly
for inductive distance sensors BAW

This switching device allows you to easily program sensors which
have an analog output signal, such as the BOD family, with three
switching thresholds, onsite.
In this, the sensor connected to the switching device is brought into
the desired switching distance from the object. Then connecting the
control line to the (+) side of the supply voltage enables a "Teach-in"
mode; in other words, the set distance is assigned to the signal level
present and these values are stored in the evaluation device. This
procedure is supported with LEDs. During operation, these LEDs are
available as switching state indicators.
For sensors with a temperature output, the analog temperature
signal is made available in unchanged form on the device output.

Banking screw actuators
Features:
Banking screw actuators are heat treated alloy steel that will accept any stan-
dard (1x) M8, M12 or M18 shielded sensor. Not intended for use with extended
range models.
Benets:
Solid state output with no mechanical contact with sensor.
Isolates sensor from impact.
Allows for positive mechanical contact to plunge without physical contact to
sensor. Banking screw used as
a rugged stop for a
linear slide.
Construction & Operation

Both the screw and piston are heat-treated to withstand heavy use. A con-
necting rod ties the spring-loaded piston to the target, which triggers the
sensor when the piston is displaced. The sensor is isolated from impact and
separated from the target with a plastic bushing.

Prox mounts for tubular sensors
Balluff provides a range of mounting solutions to decrease the need to

adjust sensors for correct sensing range to reduce downtime and setup
costs when sensors are replaced.
Initial Sensor Installation

Sensor is assembled into the Prox Mount tube and locked into place with
a plastic compression ring and metal nut. The Prox Mount and sensor
assembly is then mounted and adjusted as with any tubular sensor, but the
Prox Mount will remain in place on future sensor replacement tasks.
Advantages
Reduced downtime Quick Sensor Replacement Inductive
Reduced setup costs Simply loosen the metal nut, allowing the sensor to be quickly removed. sensors
Secure and accurate Install the new sensor into the Prox Mount mounting tube and lock into Global
sensor fastening place with the compression ring and nut. A positive stop designed into the DC 3-wire
Prox Mount tube ensures effortless repeatable sensor positioning.

Sensors
Capacitive sensors for object detection
Balluff capacitive sensors are used for object and level detection.
They measure all materials even non-conductive ones such as
liquids, granules and powders in direct contact or through a
container wall. Difcult environments such as high temperature and
pressure, stainless steel and Teon housing or a wide supply voltage
are not a problem for the capacitive sensors. These sensors are
available in different designs, including particularly small versions and
adhesive sensors.
The SmartLevel is the ideal level sensor for water based conductive
media. This is because it compensates for humidity, foam and
deposits of any kind, even through thick glass and plastic walls.

Capacitive Sensors
It would be hard to imagine not having capacitive sensors in

industrial automation, because they bring reliability to object and
level detection. Balluff capacitive sensors show what they can do in
situations where other capacitive sensors reach their limit.
With extreme precision, BCS sensors check:

Stack height
Level
Presence
Volume
In doing so, they are not affected by dust, reection or object

properties and color. And they also measure objects with absolute
reliability through glass and plastic walls, without being impeded by
external factors.
Balluff capacitive sensors provide The ideal level sensor,

more solutions to solve SmartLevel not only sees
challenging applications. through thicker glass and plastic
walls, it also compensates for
moisture, foam and deposits.
SmartLevel is able to provide
solutions in applications that
would have been impossible
before.

Capacitive sensors measure metallic or non-metallic objects, levels

of granular materials, powder, viscous or liquid media. The sensor
can be used in direct contact with the object to be measured, or as

even through container walls.
Whether contacting or contactless, the capacitive sensors from

Capacitive
Sensors
Industry standard capacitive sensors are M12 to M30 models.
For small parts detection or installation in tight mounting spaces,
however, smaller form factors are needed. The Balluff product line
therefore offers a large selection of sizes and form factors. The
small capacitive sensors can be calibrated remotely, simply using a
separate sensor amplier. And their rugged stainless steel housing
ensures reliability even under challenging conditions.
Capacitive sensors for object detection from Balluff employ a
straight-line electrical eld. These sensors detect solid bodies (e.g.
wafers, PCBs, cartons, paper stacks, bottles, plastic blocks and
plates) and sense liquids through walls made of glass and plastic
(thickness max. 4 mm). Advantage: The straight-line electrical eld
also enables media having a low dielectric constant to be detected.

Mini-sensors
CD/DVD production: Checking stack height

During CD/DVD production, Capacitive sensors monitor the stacks of
CDs and DVDs on a spindle. As soon as the maximum stack height
is reached, the sensor sends a message that allows the nished
stack to be transported further to end packaging and the next empty
spindle to be prepared. And it does this with absolute reliability, with-
out allowing itself to be inuenced by the reective surface.

Sensors in use
Paper and printing industry:

Stack height control in sheet-fed offset printing
Integrated in printing, folding and bookbinding machines, capacitive
sensors not only check stack height, but also provide for perfect
stacking of the papers, so that there is as little waste as possible
during further processing.
Despite a dirty environment (due to paper dust and anti-set-off spray
powder), the sensor works perfectly. Laterally or from above, it mea-
sures stack heights even in small increments, and raises and lowers
the stack as soon as it recognizes its height.
In the paper cutting machine, the capacitive sensor also measures
the width of the stack to be cut, so that the cutting pressure of the
cutting knife can be set in relation to it. In doing so, it proves to be
not only insensitive to dust, but also completely uninuenced by dif-
ferent colors of paper.

Standard sensors in use
Food and pharmaceutical industry:

presence check in the packaging process
If, for example, bottles in individual cartons are to be packaged
perfectly, capacitive sensors optimize the packaging process. In this
way, the BCS checks whether the bottle is present as desired after
packaging, without the carton wall being able to impede the pro-
cess. In doing so, it makes no difference whether the bottle is made
of glass or plastic. Capacitive sensors provide a quick, reliable result,
which is also more cost-effective than a weighing system.
Special machine construction:

Determining numbers of pieces
Whether screws, nuts or springs made of metallic or non-metallic
material, capacitive sensors check for completeness. To do so, they
accurately determine the exact number of pieces, without wear or
contact through container walls up to 4 mm thick. If the tube is even
thicker, there are other capacitive solutions available from us.

Capacitive sensors for level detection
Capacitive sensors for level detection use their sensing surface
to detect the product, bulk material or liquid (e.g. plastic granulate,
sugar, oil, aqueous media) directly or through a container wall.
Advantage: Their spherical electrical eld effectively compensates for
deposits on the sensing surface of the sensor.

Sensors in use
Pharmaceutical industry:
Level detection in the packaging process
Whether tablets, capsules or powder whenever products
are to be packaged perfectly in the pharmaceutical industry,
capacitive sensors are used for level detection. Capacitive sensors
simply and reliably determine the ll level directly in containers
or contactlessly through glass or plastic walls. If the level drops,
additional parts are fed so that the optimal procedure in the
packaging process is guaranteed.
Capacitive sensors are insensitive to color, and in addition are
installed quickly and easily. Without wear they prevent production
stoppage and increase the cost-effectiveness of the system.

Adjustment:
The adjustment is carried out with a potentiometer. The objective is to set a middle value between the turn-on and turn-off point
when the sensor is damped. In individual cases when temperature swings are great and very sticky media are used a slight
readjustment may be necessary. Otherwise, our adjustment instructions for non-ush mount sensor versions apply.

Airbus is equipping the rest rooms in their 4-engine
large-body A380 with a mixer tap. The heart of this
exclusive system in the elegant Airbus design are
compact SmartLevel capacitive sensors. These
enable passengers to conveniently select the desired
water temperature with the assistance of an LED
indicator. The show-stopper: sensing errors are
impossible, since SmartLevel sensors ignore clinging
dirt, liquid lms and soap foam. Touching the faucet
triggers a switching operation, even if a wet paper
towel covers it.

The new capacitive SmartLevel sensors in the Uniat design detects

conductive media through non-metallic container walls with a thickness up
to 10 mm.
Installation is quick and easy. This is because they can be screwed on or
attached to bypass tubes with cable ties. The connection is made using a
2 m cable or a short pigtail line with an M8 plug.
The codable output function provides PNP or NPN and normally open or
normally closed functionality.

Function
The capacitive distance sensor measures objects that are in its
response range without contact. As soon as the object enters it, the
electrical eld changes its sensing surface and, with it, the output
current. In this way, material composition, size and distance of the
object to the sensing surface can be determined.
The output signal (420 mA) can be adapted to the material using
the potentiometer (LED lights green). It is evaluated directly on the
analog output of the controller.

Applications
The capacitive analog sensor makes linear evaluation of a position
possible for the rst time; as soon as an object is located within the
sensor's measuring range, a precise output current is produced.
The uses shown represent only a fraction of the multifaceted
application options provided by the capacitive analog sensor.

Reliable and wear-free position detection on all
pneumatic cylinders Improved sensor performance and
reliability results in less downtime and increased productivity.
Magnetic cylinder sensors are used on cylinders and grippers for
monitoring the piston position. The sensor detects the eld of the
magnet embedded in the piston through the actuator wall. Balluff
cylinder sensors provide reliable position detection, low hysteresis
and high noise immunity. The piston position is reliably detected even
at high speeds with no contact bounce, no moving parts or double
switch points.
Mini-sensors for mini-actuators Better integration options The right sensor for each cylinder Reduce costs with fewer
Balluff offers ideal solutions for short-stroke cylinders and mini-grip- sensors:
pers. The mini cylinder switches from Balluff are among the smallest Virtually any cylinder size and make can be covered with the small

Sensors
With its standard sensors for grippers and pneumatic cylinders,
Balluff provides a exible solution for position detection with standard
sensors and the perfect mounting system. Magnetic cylinder sensors
with mounting system are suited for use on mini-grippers and in
short-stroke cylinders (BMF 103), for miniaturized (BMF 303) as well
as for larger actuators (BMF 305). The switching point is set just once
and remains intact, even when replacing the sensor. This way you
increase the functional reliability of your equipment. Replacement is
signicantly easier and more secure even at difcult-to-access
locations. By selecting the right mounting brackets you can adapt
these sensors to virtually all pneumatic cylinder types.

Magneto-inductive Distance Sensors
Micro-BIL
The Micro-BIL provides absolute measurement of the positions on

pneumatic miniature grippers or compact cylinders with integrated
permanent magnets. Moreover, the sensor element can be installed
in the T-slot very easily. The analog output signal enables individual
and exible detection of end positions and intermediate positions on
gripper jaws or pistons.
Features
Wear-free since the measuring position is detected without
contact
Insensitive to shock and vibration
Absolute output signal: Voltage or current
(cable break monitoring possible)
Adjustable measuring range / magnetic eld strength
Easiest installation in the T-slot
A button enables adjustment to various magnetic eld strengths.

The technical data refer to reference measurements. Different
grippers/cylinders having differing magnetic elds may affect the
technical data.
Original mounting brackets and screws are recommended for

attaching the Micro-BIL. Please order accessories separately.

Inductive sensors
Principle ... of inductive proximity sensors is based on the interaction

between metallic conductors and an electromagnetic alternating
eld. Eddy currents are induced in the metallic damping material,
which removes energy from the eld and reduces the height of
the oscillation amplitude. This change is processed in the induc-
tive sensor, which changes its output state accordingly.

Short circuit protected ... is achieved in Balluff sensors using pulsing or thermal short circuit protection

voltage of 60 V DC) The trigger current for the short circuit protection is higher than the rated operating
current Ie. Currents from switching and load capacitances are specied in the sensor
data and do not result in triggering, but rather are masked by a short delay in the
output circuit.
Short circuit/overload ... AC or AC/DC sensors are often operated with a relay or contactor as the load.
protected AC switching devices (contactors/relays) create a signicantly higher load (6...10
(universal AC/DC sensors) rated current) when they are rst energized as compared with their static operation
due to the fact that the core is still open.The static value of the load (current) is not
reached until several milliseconds later. Not until the magnetic eld is closed does the
max. permissible rated operating current Ie ow through the sensor.This means that
the threshold value for a short circuit condition in these sensors must lie signicantly
higher and would, if for example the contactor is prevented for mechanical or electri-
cal reasons from fully closing, result in an overload on the sensors.
This is where the overload protection comes into play. It is designed as slow-acting
(time-delayed). Its trigger threshold lies only slightly above the maximum permissible
Ie. A response (i. e. turn-off) is delayed, depending on the magnitude of the overload,
by more than 20 milliseconds. This ensures that properly working relays and contac-
tors can be switched normally, while defective devices will not destroy the Balluff
sensor. The short circuit/overload protection is generally of a bi-stable design, which
means that it must be reset by turning off the supply voltage to the sensor.

Inductive sensors response curves
Axial and radial damping

When damping in an axial direction the standard target is moved concentric to the system axis. The switchpoint is there-
by determined only by the distance s from the sensing face of the sensor. When damping in the radial direction, the
location of the switchpoint is additionally affected by the radial distance r of the target from the system axis.
The diagram shows the response curves, which indicate the dependency of the switchpoint on s and r.The primary
purpose of this drawing is to show the possibility of damping using a lateral approach and the difference compared with
axial approach
Application
Due in part to manufacturing tolerances within a production run, the exact switchpoint must in any case be established on
site.The solid lines represent the respective switchpoint (E), the dashed lines indicate the turn-off point (A). The red lines ap-
ply to switches with a clear zone, and the black lines for ush mount types. Since the switching operation can be induced
from either direction, the curves are shown mirrored from the system axis.
Examples
Passing objects on conveyor lines generate a signal change when their front edge crosses the turn-on curve on the entry
side. The signal reverses again when the back edge of the passing object crosses the (mirrored) turn-off curve on the op-
posite side. With reversing parts (e. g. limit of travel), the signal reversal occurs at the turn-off curve on the same side.

Sensor diameter (sensing face)
Sensor
The vertical axis in the diagram shows the distance of the switchpoint from the sensing face. It is referenced to the
nominal sensing distance sn. At a distance of 0.8 mm, a laterally approaching target reaches the solid line turn-on
curve at point E and leaves the turn-off curve at point A.
The horizontal axis in the diagram is referenced to the radius of the sensingface. The zero point of this axis lies in
the center of the shell core cap. In our example for the M12 switch, the radius is r = 6 mm. Example: The distance of
the turn-on and turn-off point (from the system axis) is typically E ~ 2.75 mm, A ~ 2.95 mm.

Adjustable Sensitivity The ability of the sensor to discriminate between different levels of light incidence on the receiver.
Used primarily to black out background objects, discriminate between materials, or transparent objects.
Alarm output The alarm output at the receiver (PNP open collector 30mA) triggers a warning signal in the case
of functional interruptions, which can be caused by contamination or mechanical de-adjustment.
The alarm output is activated if the received signal lies in the alarm range for a dened amount of
time. Stability (green LED)

For series BOS 18M Teach-in, the entire product family, including diffuse and retrore-
ective sensors, is equipped with an alarm output.
Alignment Relation of the emitter and receiver. Proper alignment is necessary to achieve maximum
sensitivity to objects being sensed.
Ambient Light Light that is present in a given area; e.g., inside, outside, incandescent, or uorescent. In some
cases, ambient light may affect photoelectric controls.
Ambient Light Rejection There are basically 3 different ways for the receiver to differentiate the emitters signal from the ambi-
ent light. As a practical consideration in setting up a system, it is advised to direct the receiver away
from strong external light sources, such as the sun or industrial lighting.
1. Modulation - Pulsed light is different from continuous ambient light.
2. Filters - Filters block most of the visible light spectrum so that a modulated signal is more easily detected.
3. Focal Arrangement - Lenses are used at the emitter and receiver to focus the beam for optimum
signal transmission. This lens arrangement actually makes the image of the emitter focus on the
receiver just like a camera would focus an image on a sheet of lm.
Ambient temperature The ambient temperature is the temperature range in which the function of the photoelectric switch
is guaranteed. Balluff Standard: 15CTa+55C
Amplier A device that enables an input signal to control an output signal of that device.
Analog Sensors The output current or voltage is proportional to the target distance or surface.
Autocollimation Emitter and receiver use a common lens. The emitter light passes Beam splitter
through the beam splitter and the lens to the reector. The reector Emitter
Detection-
bounces the emitter light back to the lens. This gives retroreective area
sensors that work with autocollimation a small, round beam prole.

Receiver
better small parts detection, and the switching characteristic is
independent of the approach direction.
Axial Approach When a target to be detected approaches the sensing face head on.
Background suppression (BGS) Through the background suppression, objects within a set switching distance are detected, without
being impeded by the reective background, and nearly independent of color and surface of the ob-
ject (object reection). Background suppression is achieved by cutting the beam from the emitter to
the receiver. To do so, it divides the visible eld into an active area and the background. In addition,
by dividing the receiver into at least two adjacent areas (e. g. by using a dual diode or a PSD- ele-
ment) and by means of a geometric arrangement (triangulation), the actual position of the
object within the sensing range can be determined. Through this, the object and the background
can be distinguished accurately. Diffuse sensors with background suppression are characterized by
low gray value shift and hysteresis.

Beam Pattern In the operation of thru-beam and retroreective sensors, a degree of deviation from absolute align
ment of the emitter and receiver (within which the beam intensity is sufcient to activate the receiver)
determines the beam pattern.
Color Mark Detector A sensor designed to differentiate between different colored marks, or between a color mark and the
background color it appears on. The contrast between the two marks, not the true color of the
mark, is used for this detection. The color mark detector is available with either Red or Green LED
emitters for this purpose.
Color Registration/Mark Detection Proximity (diffuse) sensing mode that detects the contrast between two colors on a surface.
Light Source Code:

G = Green
R = Red
RG = Red or Green
X = not possible
Color Registration Sensor The color registration sensor is a highly specialized diffuse proximity sensor that has the ability to
detect ne changes in contrast on a surface. But unlike the standard diffuse proximity sensor, this
type of unit uses a powerful lens system and must be positioned at a specic focal distance from the target.

Current Consumption Maximum amount of current required to properly operate a sensor.
Current Sinking NPN output - an output type such that when it is ON, current ow is from the load into the devices output,
then to ground. Output is normal high. The sensor sinks current from the load through the sensor to
ground. The load is connected between the positive lead of the supply and the output lead of the sensor.
Current Sourcing PNP output - an output type such that when it is ON, current ow is from the device into the load. Output
is normally low. The sensor sources current to the load. The load is connected between the output lead
and the negative ground lead of the supply. Considered safer than NPN outputs due to the way current
ows when wired up.
Dark Operation (Mode) Dark mode output is energized when the target is present (proximity output is energized when target is not detected).
Output mode that will result in an output from a device when light from the emitter is not being received upon the
receiver. The beam is being interrupted, thus creating an output.
Degree of contamination Pure air Ideal conditions

Trace contamination Relatively clean air in indoor rooms
Slight contamination Workshop- and storage rooms
Moderate contamination Dirty and dusty environments; switching distance is

reduced to s = 0.5 su
High contamination Heavy precipitation, whirled-up particles and
swarf: Functional failure of the photoelectric sensor is possible.
Highest contamination Coal dust precipitating on the lens.
Photoelectric sensor function may fail.
Detectable Object Refers to the requirements of an object size, reection qualities, light transmission properties, in order for that object
to be detected by the photoelectric sensor.

Differential The distance between the operating point and the release point as the target is moving away. It is expressed as ei-
ther a linear dimension or in number of degrees. The distance between the operating points where the target enters
the sensing eld (sensor energizes) to the release point (sensor re-energizes).
All discrete sensing technologies must have a differential. In some technologies, differential occurs as a by-product of
the basic laws of physics; however, in other technologies it must be manufactured through additional circuitry.
Photoelectrics - The distinctive property of a photoelectric sensor that results in the operation point being different
from the release point. This distance is expressed as a % of the total sensing distance of the photoelectric sensor. It
is the distance difference between the operating point when approaching the photoelectric and the release point
when moving away from the photoelectric.
Diffuse Where the unit senses the light directly from the target. The emitter and receiver are in the same housing, the same
as retroreective; however, the receiver is more sensitive to the weaker light that is diffused by the surface of the target.
Directional Angle The angular range within which an emitter, receiver, emitter/receiver pair or reector can be rotated
or shifted about on the optical axis and still have the photoelectric properly operate.
Double Pole Double Throw (DPDT) Sensors that make and break two separate circuits. This circuit provides a normally open and
normally closed contact for each pole.
Dynamic Optical Window Thru-beam sensors in an array used to detect moving parts in a conned operating space while
ignoring non-moving parts.
Effective Sensing Distance This is the actual sensing distance realized by the sensor installed in the actual application. The ef-
fective sensing distance will be no less than the usable sensing distance, and is usually closer to the
nominal in average circumstances.
Emitter A device that emits light when an electric current is passed through it. Emitters can give off visible
light (red, green, blue, white) but the majority used for industrial applications emits invisible electro-
magnetic waves (infrared).

Excess Gain The measure of light energy striking the receiver above the threshold required to activate the reeiver.
Excess gain is used to predict the performance of optical sensors in various environments.
Excess Gain Ratio Maximum light available at a given distance. Level of light intensity needed to operate the photoelectric sensor.
Fiber Optic Cables Optical conductors are made of glass or plastic with a diameter of as little as 50 m and bunched
in bundles of several hundred individual bers to form so-called ber optics. The ber ends are
ground and polished to meet the quality criteria of the optical industry.
The individual bers are coated with a very thin layer of lubricant. This reduces friction against the
outer jacket and between the bers, so that broken bers are prevented even when the cable is
continuously exed. The transmission properties are guaranteed through this over a long span of
time.
The ends of the bundles are potted with the connection sleeve and the jacket. Balluff ber optics
thus have an IP 67 rating (IP 65 for metal jacket). Moisture and aggressive media cannot hurt either
the bers or the slide coating, so the optical properties remain unaffected.
This design distributes axial pull forces evenly over all the bers, and protects the individual bers
from excessive pull loads.

Fiber Optic Sensing The use of ber optic cables and a ber optic amplier to remotely sense in either a conned location or an
environment that a normal sensor will not function (High temperatures, chemicals).
Fixed Focus A diffuse reective photoelectric sensor that the optical axis of the emitter and receiver is adjusted to a focal
point or it utilizes an aperture to focus on an area in front of the sensor.
Focusable Diffuse A diffuse reective photoelectric sensor that either allows the optical axis of the emitter and receiver to be
adjusted to a focal point or it utilizes an aperture to focus on an area in front of the sensor.
Fork sensor Fork sensors are through-beam designs in which the emitter and receiver are arranged across from
each other in a U-shaped housing. Through the housing type, alignment and electrical connection
are simplied. Different ranges are available by selecting different housing congurations. Fork
openings of 5...220 mm are possible in various increments. The built-in potentiometer and apertures
allow you to adjust the fork sensors easily for detecting parts down to a diameter of 60 m.
Gray value shift Gray value shift is the switching distance difference when calibrating using different object
reectivities. The sensor is calibrated for a distance using a Kodak-gray card with 90 % reection.
With the Kodak-gray card with 18 % reection, the distance achieved with it is measured. The
difference between these two switchpoints in % is referred to as the gray value shift. The smaller the
gray value shift, the more color-independently the sensor operates.
Hysteresis The distance between the operating point and the release point as the target is moving away in order to make
a precise determination of target presence without factors of the environment intervening to create a noisy
output signal. (see Differential)
Interface Translates the presence of a target into an electrical signal.
Internal Reection Internal reection occurs whenever a light ray strikes the surface of a medium whose refractive index is less
than that of the medium in which the light is traveling. An example of this is a light source in water, where light
is internally reected from the surface of air. The amount of light that is reected depends upon the angle at
which it hits the surface. The critical angle is 49. At this angle the ray of light is completely contained within
the medium. Basic

protective measures are not required. When using devices of protection classes 1 and 2, no laser
safety ofcer is necessary in the company.
Lateral Approach When the target to be detected approaches the sensing face from the side (slide by).
Leakage Current The amount of current that ows through, or leaks from, the output of an energized device when the device
is in the OFF state. Most common problem involves leakage current when a device is wired as an input to a
programmable logic controller. Leakage current should be less than 1.7mA.

Light Incident The condition met when light from the emitter is reaching, or incident upon, the receiver.
Light Interrupted The condition met when light from the emitter is not reaching, or incident upon, the receiver.

Output mode that will result in an output turning ON when light from the emitter is incident upon the receiver.
Light Refraction Light beams experience a change in direction (interruption) at the

border between two optical media with different optical
thicknesses(e.g. glass/air). The degree of interruption depends on
n
the quotients of the optical thicknesses of both media and on the reectio

angle of incidence Hto the optical axis.
If a light beam travels from a dense medium, n, into a thinner one,

n, its course there will show a greater angle H. However, above
Hcrit. (boundary angle at which the broken beam runs parallel to the
boundary layer), it again enters the medium with the
thickness n; this means that a total reection is pending.
Light Source Type of light used in the emitter portion of the photoelectric. Most common, pulse modulated LED or
incandescent lamp.
Light transmission Without the total reection at boundary layers described above,
by total reection ber optics of todays quality would not be feasible. They consist of
a cylindrical, light-conducting core and a surrounding thin-wall
jacket. The optical density n of the core is greater than that of the
jacket. A light beam is always completely reected at the junction
between core and jacket, and can therefore never leave the core in
a radial direction. Theoretically, the light is not weakened by these
reections; however, contamination and small defects both in the
core material as well as the boundary layer do cause losses
(attenuation) and effectively limit the ber optic length over which
reliable information can be transmitted.
Line-Powered Sensor A sensor that draws its operating current directly from the line. Its operating current does not ow through
the load, and a minimum of three (3-wire) connections is required. A 4-wire has complimentary outputs and
requires four connections.
Loads There are basically two different kinds of loads:

Resistive - Lamps, heaters, solid state PLC input modules
Inductive - Relays and solenoid valves
Load-Powered A sensor that draws its operating current (leakage current) through the load. The sensor is always in series
with the load and only two connections are required.
Method of Detection Sensing technique used by the photoelectric sensor. Three types - Thru Beam, Retroreective, or Diffuse Reective.

Minimum Load Minimum current that the external load must draw to ensure proper operation of the photoelectric sensor. Most
often associated with standard AC 2-wire devices.
Luminescence To locate invisible marks on objects, so-called luminescent materials (contained in special chalks,
inks, paints etc.) are used which can only be made visible under ultraviolet (UV) light. The uorescent
materials convert the invisible UV light (short wavelength, here 380 nm) into visible light (between
blue 450 nm and dark red 780 nm). This effect is called photoluminescence. The visible light can
then be detected as usual by the receiver component of the sensor.
Maximum Load The most current that can ow through a device continually without damaging the device.
Method of Detection Sensing technique used by the photoelectric sensor. Three types - Thru Beam, Retroreective, or Diffuse Reective.
Minimum Load Minimum current that the external load must draw to ensure proper operation of the photoelectric sensor. Most
often associated with standard AC 2-wire devices.
Modulated LED Pulsations of light at a specic frequency reduce interference from ambient light and increase sensing distance.
Mutual Interference A feature in photoelectric sensors that eliminates false-signaling between similar protection sensors mounted next
to (or in close proximity to) each other.
N.C. (Normally Closed) Current ow through the sensing device is possible only when the device is in the off state or de-energized.
Contacts are closed when the sensor is not operated and when there is no external force on the actuator. The
sensor opens a circuit to the load when a target is detected or sensor is operated.
N.O. (Normally Open) Current ow through the device is not possible when the device is de-energized (turned OFF). Contacts are
open when the sensor is not operated and when there is not external force on the actuator. The sensor closes
a circuit to the load when a target is detected or sensor is operated.
Nominal Sensing Distance The rated operating distance for which the sensor is designed. This value should only be taken as a guide,
since no manufacturing tolerances or changes in external ope
