WARNING … Not to be used for Personnel Protection
Never use product as sensing devices for personnel protection.
Doing so could cause serious injury or death.
These sensors do NOT include the self-checking redundant circuitry
necessary to allow their use in personnel safety applications. A sensor failure or
malfunction can cause either an energized or de-energized sensor output
condition. UL 325 Non-compliant
Both the transmitter and receiver lenses may be aligned
left, right or straight ahead. To align gently pull the lens
stem straight out from mounting position and snap back
into place pointing in the desired direction.
Units should be placed a minimum of 12 – 16 inches
from the floor. Across from and lenses facing each
other. The receiver red detect LED will be on when the
beam is broken or not aligned.
Place the BPE-50 away from heat and electromagnetic
sources for best operation. Mount units a minimum of
12 inches 30 cm from the floor.
Apply power to the units and set jumpers per instruction
on see figures 1 and 2.
Test installation to insure desired and proper operation.
All local and operator manufacturer installation
instructions should be followed.
The BPE-50 transmitter may be hooked up to an edge
sensor for alternative activation operation.
The BPE-50 does not require any special care, but it is
necessary to check condition occasionally to insure they
are operating correctly. (Batteries are still operational if
on battery power)
Recommended battery replacement is the Varta ERAA 3V6
2400.
