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 de-energized sensor output condition.

Principles of Operation
Ultrasonic sensors emit one or multiple pulses of ultrasonic energy, which travel through the air at the speed of sound. A portion of this energy reflects off the target and travels back to the sensor. The sensor measures the total time required for the energy to reach the target and return to the sensor. The distance to the object is then calculated using the following formula: D = ct ÷ 2
D = distance from the sensor to the target c = speed of sound in air t = transit time for the ultrasonic pulse
To improve accuracy, an ultrasonic sensor may average the results of several pulses before outputting a new value.
Temperature Effects
The speed of sound is dependent upon the composition, pressure and temperature of the gas in which it is traveling. For most ultrasonic applications, the composition and pressure of the gas are relatively fixed, while the temperature may fluctuate.
In air, the speed of sound varies with temperature according to the following approximation:

To order the 9 m cable models, add the suffix “w/30” to the model number of a cabled sensor (e.g., QT50ULB w/30). Models with a QD connector require a mating cable.

In metric
In English units:
units:
C
= speed of sound in meters per second C
m/s
= speed of sound in feet per second
ft/s
TC = temperature in °C TF = temperature in °F
The speed of sound changes roughly 1% per 6° C (10° F). QT50U series ultrasonic sensors have temperature compensation available, via the 8-pin DIP switch. Temperature compensation will reduce the error due to temperature by about 90%.
NOTE: NOTE: If the sensor is measuring across a temperature gradient, the compensation will be less effective.
Analog Output Slope
The U-GAGE QT50ULB Sensor may be programmed for either a positive or a negative output slope, depending on which conditions are taught for the Min and Max Analog limits. If the Min Analog limit is the Near Window setting and the Max Analog limit is the Far Window setting, then the slope will be positive. If the opposite is true, then the slope will be negative.
Figure 1. Positive and Negative Output Slops
Configuration
The U-GAGE QT50ULB Sensor features an 8-pin DIP switch bank for user setup. The DIP switches are located behind the access cover on the back of the sensor as shown. A spanner tool is included with each sensor for removing the cover.

DIP Switch Selectable Functions
CAUTION: To avoid damage to the sensor caused by static discharge (ESD), observe proper ESD
precautions (grounding) while adjusting the DIP switches.
Switch 1: Output Mode Select
ON = 4 to 20 mA current output is enabled OFF = 0 to 10 V dc voltage output is enabled
Switch 1 configures the sensor internally to use either the current output or voltage output configuration.
Switch 2: Loss of Echo Mode Select
ON = Min-Max Mode OFF = Hold Mode
Switch 2 determines the output response to the loss of echo. “Min-Max Mode” (Switch 2 ON) drives the output to either the minimum value or the maximum value when the echo is lost. (Minimum or Maximum value is selected via Switch 3.)
“Hold Mode” (Switch 2 OFF) maintains the output at the value which was present at the time of echo loss.
Switch 3: Min-Max Default
ON = Default to maximum output value at loss of echo (10.5 V dc or 20.8 mA) OFF = Default to minimum output value at loss of echo (0 V dc or 3.6 mA)
Switch 3 selects the output response to loss of echo when “Min-Max Mode” is selected via Switch 2. When Switch 2 is OFF, Switch 3 has no function.
Switch 4: Teach/Transmit Enable Control
ON = Gray (or yellow) wire configured for remote teach OFF = Gray (or yellow) wire configured for transmit enable/disable: High (5 to 30 V dc) - Transmit Enabled (Power LED
solid Green); Low (0 to 2 V dc) - Transmit Disabled (Power LED flashes at 2 Hz) When Switch 4 is ON, the gray wire is used to teach window limits to the sensors. When Switch 4 is OFF, the gray wire is used to enable and disable the sensor’s transmit burst. The sensor output will react
as if a “loss of echo” occurred and either hold the output or change to minimum or maximum value (depending on switch 2 and 3 settings). This function may be used when multiple sensors are in close proximity, which may make them vulnerable to crosstalk interference. A PLC can be used to enable the sensors one at a time to avoid crosstalk.

U-GAGE QT50ULB Series Sensors with Analog Output
Switches 5 and 6 are used to set the speed of the output response. The four values for response speed relate to the number of sensing cycles over which the output value is averaged.
Switch 7: Temperature Compensation
ON = Temperature compensation enabled
OFF = Temperature compensation disabled Changes in air temperature affect the speed of sound, which in turn affects the distance reading measured by the sensor.
An increase in air temperature shifts both sensing window limits closer to the sensor. Conversely, a decrease in air temperature shifts both limits farther away from the sensor. This shift is approximately 3.5% of the limit distance for a 20 °C change in temperature. With temperature compensation enabled (Switch 7 ON), the sensor will maintain the window limits to within 1.8 percent over the –20 °C to 70 °C range.
The temperature sensor in the sensor’s bezel cannot adapt to temperature change as quickly as an external temperature device can. When there are fast fluctuations in temperature, it may be best to use an external temperature monitor and feed its signal and the uncompensated distance measurement into a controller and perform the compensation calculations within the controller.
Consult the factory for details on performing temperature compensation calculations.
• If temperature compensation is enabled, exposure to direct sunlight can affect the sensor’s ability to accurately compensate for changes in temperature.
• With temperature compensation enabled, the temperature warmup drift upon power-up is less than 0.8% of the sensing distance. After 15 minutes, the apparent distance will be within 0.5% of the actual distance. After 30 minutes, the apparent distance will be within 0.3% of the actual distance.

General Notes on Programming
• The sensor returns to RUN mode if the limit is not registered within 120 seconds after entering TEACH Mode.
• Press and hold the programming push button for more than 2 seconds (before teaching the limit) to exit PROGRAM mode without saving any changes. The sensor will revert to the last saved program.
• If the push buttons do not respond, perform a remote lockout procedure to enable push buttons.
Sensor Programming
Two TEACH methods may be used to program the sensor:
• Teach individual minimum and maximum limits
• Use the Auto-Window feature to center a sensing window around the taught position
The sensor may be programmed either via its two push buttons, or via a remote switch. Remote programming also may be used to disable the push buttons, preventing unauthorized personnel from adjusting the programming settings. To access this feature, connect the gray wire of the sensor to 0–2 V dc, with a remote programming switch between the sensor and the voltage.
NOTE: The impedance of the Remote Teach input is 12 kΩ.
Programming is accomplished by following the sequence of input pulses. The duration of each pulse (corresponding to a push button “click”), and the period between multiple pulses, are defined as “T” where 0.04 seconds < T < 0.8 seconds.
