PVD Series Parts Verification Sensor

Diffuse or retroreflective sensor for error proofing of bin-picking operations

• One-component system, easy to mount and even easier to use. Automatically operates in
either diffuse or retroreflective mode, depending on the application

• Automatic setup and adjustment; wide beam pattern provides easy alignment

• Range up to 2 m (6.5 ft) when used with retroreflective target; 400 mm (15.7 in) when used
in diffuse mode

• Large job lights on either side of the metal housing can be remotely controlled to initiate
user action with a solid or a blinking green light; job lights turn red to indicate bin-picking
errors

• Compact package size; only 30 mm wide x 15 mm deep (1.2 in x 0.6 in)

• Available in 2 lengths to fit existing parts bin sizes and configurations

• Easy DIP-switch adjustments: PNP/NPN output, normally open/normally closed operation,
solid/flashing job light, and gate polarity for job light activation

• Two LEDs indicate power ON and output ON

• Choose 2 m (6.5 ft) unterminated cable or 2 m (6.5 ft) cable with 5-pin Euro-style quick-

Visible Red, 630 nm

WARNING: Not To Be Used for Personnel Protection
Never use this device as a sensing device for personnel protection. Doing so could lead to serious
injury or death. This device does not include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow its

use in personnel safety applications. A sensor failure or malfunction can cause either an energized or de­energized sensor output condition.

Overview

The PVD Series Parts Verification Sensor is a one-component, easy-to-use light screen suited to many part assembly, bin picking (pick­to-light), and error-proofing applications. The PVD increases task efficiency due to simplified job training, increased quality control (no
skipped components), and reduced rework and inspections. It speeds the resumption of work after breaks and other distractions, and is
ideal for multilingual workplaces where communication is an issue.

The PVD self-contained, solid-state emitter/receiver array is capable of functioning in either diffuse or retroreflective sensing mode. No
configuration is required for this selection. If a retroreflective target is installed opposite the sensor, it will function in retroreflective mode.
If not, it will function in diffuse mode. The sensor’s ongoing self-adjustment feature requires no user adjustment; the sensor adapts to the
sensing conditions after 15 seconds when blocked. Sensor range decreases when no retroreflector is installed.

• 9 m (30 ft) cables are available by adding suffix “W/30” to the model number of any cabled sensor (for example, PVD100 W/30)

• 150 mm (6 in) cable terminated in a QD connector available by adding “W/6IN” to model number of any terminated sensor (for example, PVD100Q W/6IN). A model with a QD
connector requires a mating cable; see Cordsets on page 7.

PVD Series Parts Verification Sensor

The DIP-switch-selectable PNP/NPN output interfaces to a system controller, which is pre-programmed for a specific sequence of tasks.
Mounted with its visible red beams stretching across each parts bin, the sensor job light signals the assembler which bins contain items
to be picked in a given operation and in what order they should be picked.

As the assembler takes a part in sequence and breaks the beam, the sensor senses that the part was removed and it sends an output
signal to the controller. The controller then verifies if the correct part was taken and may respond by turning that job light OFF, activating
the job light of the next bin in the sequence. If the assembler reaches into a bin out of sequence, the PVD turns on its output to signal the
system controller and turns on its red job light to signal the assembler that an incorrect pick has occurred.

Standard configuration options are selected by means of a bank of four DIP switches behind a press-on black rubber cover. DIP switch
options include: PNP or NPN output, Normally Open or Normally Closed operation, steady or flashing job light, and job light control input.

Installation

Multiple sensors located farther than the sensor's maximum range from one another are unlikely to cause crosstalk problems. However,
when multiple sensors are mounted in a confined area, take care to avoid crosstalk between them. Alternate the relative position of
adjacent sensors and/or reflectors. Sensors positioned above or below one another should not create crosstalk difficulties. Mount the
sensor and reflector parallel.

PVD Series Parts Verification Sensor

Mounting

The wide beam pattern of PVD sensors simplifies their alignment. M4 stainless steel fasteners
and two stainless steel brackets are included with each sensor.

Mount the sensor and its reflector, if used, parallel to one another in the same plane, and their
tops and bottoms aligned.

1. From a common point of reference, make measurements to locate the sensor and its reflec­tor, if used, in the same plane with their midpoints directly opposite each other.

2. Mount the included brackets to the top and bottom of each sensor, as shown.

3. Mount the sensor in its brackets and the reflector, if used, being careful to position the sen­sor's red lenses directly facing the reflector.

4. Measure from one or more reference planes (for example, the building or bin floor) to the
same point(s) on the emitter and receiver to verify their mechanical alignment. (If the sen­sors/reflectors are mounted exactly vertical or horizontal, a carpenter’s level may be helpful.
A straightedge or a string extended between the sensor and the bin wall may also be help­ful.)

5. Also check “by eye” for line-of-sight alignment.

6. Make any necessary final mechanical adjustments, and hand-tighten the bracket hardware.

7. After the electrical hookup is complete, check for beam alignment. If necessary, re-align the
emitter and receiver at that time.

Hookups

All models feature integral 2 m (6.5 ft) long, 3.3 mm (0.13 inch) dia. PVC-jacketed cables. Models whose model numbers end in “Q” are
terminated with quick-disconnect (QD) Euro-style 5-pin connectors; other models have unterminated ends. Optional mating QD cables
are available. Either 4-pin or 5-pin QD cables may be used; the center pin of a 5-pin cable (gray wire, pin 5) is unused in normal opera­tion.

Wiring is functionally identical for cabled and quick-disconnect models.
