MINI-BEAM Modifications
Description
All MINI-BEAM sensors may be ordered with an integral 9 m (30')
cable in place of the standard 2 m (6.5') cable
Standard dc MINI-BEAM sensors with 1 millisecond output response may
be modified for 0.3 millisecond (300 µs) response.
NOTE: Faster response comes at the expense of lower excess gain.
Also, operating temperature range becomes -20º to +50ºC (-4º to +122ºF)

terminated with the
appropriate QD connector.

Apertures
Opposed mode MINI-BEAM sensors may be fitted with apertures which narrow or shape the effective beam of the sensor to more closely match
the size or profile of the object to be sensed. A common example is the use of “line” or “slit” type aperture when wire or thread is be sensed.
Each model contains 20 apertures.

Right-Angle Reflectors
MINI-BEAM right-angle reflectors are useful for tight sensing
locations. NOTE: These reflectors significantly decrease excess gain.
