Page 10: Excess gain models sensing mode, Convergent mode, Sbcv1, Sbcvg1, Sbc1-4, Sbc1, Sbc1-6
SBCV1
Focus at: 1.5 inch (38mm)
Response: 1ms on/off
Repeatability: 0.3ms
Beam: visible red, 650nm
SBCVG1
Focus at: 1.5 in. (38mm)
Response: 1ms on/off
Repeatability: 0.3ms
Beam: visible green, 560nm
SBC1-4
Focus at: 4 inches (10cm)
SBCV1: .06-inch (1.5mm) dia. visible red spot, for precise positioning, edge-guiding, & small parts detection.
Sensor-to-product distance must be consistent. Some products
≥
1" tall may be sensed against immediate
background like parts on a conveyor. Excellent for high-contrast registration-sensing applications (except red-on-
white). Use with LM6-1 logic module for speed detection sensing gear teeth, pulley hubs, or chain links.
SBCVG1: .12-inch (3mm) diameter visible green spot. Use to detect color differences (e.g. color registration
marks), including red-on-white combinations. For subtle shade variations, use model FO2BG (see Banner product
catalog).
SBC1, SBC1-4, SBC1-6: infrared LED light source provides higher gain for reliable sensing of products of low
reflectivity, while controlling sensing depth of field. Does not offer the same precision possible with visible light
models. Good for sensing clear materials within the sensor's depth of field. Good for reliably counting the flow
of radiused products which are kept at a fixed distance from the sensor (e.g. bottles against conveyor guide rail).
SBCX1, SBCX1-4, SBCX1-6: these models offer the greatest optical gain available in any reflective mode sensor.
They reliably detect most non-reflective black materials in applications where opposed mode sensing is not
possible (e.g. web break monitoring). Not meant for ignoring background objects (see excess gain charts).
