* Cabled models have 2 m (6.5') integral cable; 2-wire for emitters, 3-wire for receivers.
** QD models have 3-pin 150 mm (6.5") Pico-style QD pigtail. QD models require mating cable; see page 4.
VS2 Series Opposed-Mode Sensors
Miniature self-contained sensors
VS2 Series Features
•Totally self-contained miniature sensors
• 10 to 30V dc operation
• Visible red or infrared sensing beam, depending on model
• Up to 3 m (118") sensing range (see Range specifications below)
• Choose dark or light operate models
• Choose models with NPN (sinking) or PNP (sourcing) output
• 2-wire and 3-wire hookup; output load capacity to 50 mA
• Choice of integral cable or quick-disconnect pigtail
• Sensors may be purchased in pairs, or individually
VS2 Series miniature self-contained sensors are designed for precision sensing in small areas
previously accessible only to remote or fiber optic models. Typical applications include mounting
inside vibrating feeders and electronic component handling equipment.

VS2 Series Opposed-Mode Sensor Specifications
Supply Voltage and Current
Supply Protection Circuitry Protected against reverse polarity and transient voltages
Output Configuration SPST solid-state switch
Choose NPN (current sinking) or PNP (current sourcing) models
Choose light operate (N.O.) or dark operate (N.C.) models
Output Rating 50 mA maximum
Off-state leakage current: < 1 microamp at 24V dc
On-state saturation voltage: < 0.25V at 10 mA dc; < 0.5V at 50 mA dc
Output Protection Circuitry Protected against false pulse on power-up and continuous overload or short circuit of outputs
Overload trip point ≥ 100 mA

(NOTE: 100 millisecond delay on power-up: output is non-conducting during this time)
Indicators Two LEDs: Green and Yellow
Green ON steady = power to sensor is ON
Green flashing = output overload
Yellow ON steady = light is sensed
Yellow flashing =marginal excess gain (1-1.5x) in light condition
