Product Description

The pms sensor has a stainless steel
housing and is designed for applica­tions with hygienic requirements.
The ultrasonic transducer surface of
the pms sensors is laminated with a
PTFE film (Teflon film). The transdu­cer itself is sealed against the hous­ing by a joint ring.
The pms sensor with a D12 adapter
shaft can be fitted in a mounting clip
which meets hygiene standards like the
sensor screw connection BF-pms/A1.

The special housing design ensures
that any cleaning fluids are able to
run off completely, regardless of the
intstallation situation.
The pms sensor is ECOLAB certified.

The pms sensor variant D12 adapter
shaft offers a non-contact measure­ment of the distance to an object

zone. Depending on the set window
limits, a distance-proportional ana­logue signal is the result.
For sensor setting, the accessory
LinkControl adapter LCA-2 is recom­mended in combination with Link­Control software for Windows©. Al­ternatively, the sensor can also be set
by Teach-in via pin 2.

Safety Notes

 Read the operating instructions

prior to start-up.

 Connection, installation and

adjustment works should be car­ried out by expert personnel only.

 No safety component in

accordance with the EU Machine
Directive.

Proper use

pms ultrasonic sensors are used for
non-contact detection of objects.
The sensor must be mounted in an
EHEDG-approved mounting clip,
such as the sensor screw connection
BF-pms/A1 for a EHEDG-complaint
use.

Installation

 Assemble the sensor and its hygie-

nic D12 sensor screw connection
BF-pms/A1 or an equivalent sensor
mounting clip at the installation
location.

 Pull sensor cable through the sen-

sor gland, connect it to the M8
sensor plug.

 Push the sensor with its shaft into

the sensor screw connection BF­pms/A1 and adjust (see figure 3-

5). Tighten with lock nut (maxi­mum tightening torque 12 Nm).

Start-Up

 Connect the power supply.
 Carry out the sensor adjustment

with LinkControl or alternatively
Teach-in procedure in accordance
with the diagram.

Maintenance

microsonic sensors are maintenance­free. For cleaning in areas with hygi­enic requirements, access to the sen­sor must be guaranteed from all
sides. Cleaning is permitted up to a
cleaning temperature of 85°C. Do
not use a high-pressure cleaner to
clean the sensor.

influence of the sensors

Notes

 The sensors of the pms family

have a blind zone. Within this
zone a distance measurement is
not possible.

mounting for parallel or opposite
arrangement of the sensors shown
in figure 2 must be maintained.

 The pms sensors are equipped

with an internal temperature com­pensation. Due to the sensors self
heating, the temperature compen­sation reaches its optimum
working-point after approx. 45
seconds of operation.

 The sensor can be reset to its fac-

tory setting (see »Further set­tings«).

 For Teach-in procedure when us-

ing the LinkControl adapter (op­tional accessory) the additional
adapter 5G/M12-4G/M12/M8 is
needed.

 If the sensor is cleaned wet during

operation, all surfaces must be in­clined at least 3° from the hori­zontal alignment so that the clea­ning agents can run off completely
(see figure 3).

Fig. 3: pms sensor D12-adapter shaft with

sensor screw connection BF-pms/A1,
all surfaces must be inclined at
least 3°.

■ The D12 adapter shaft of the pms
sensor has to stick out at least
6 mm from the screw connection
(see figure 5).

 The sealing ring has to fill space

between D12 sensor shaft and cap
nut. Sealing ring should not to be
pressed out excessively from the
shaft gland.

detection zones

for different objects:

The dark grey areas are determined with a

round bar and indicate the typical operating

range of a sensor. In order to obtain the light

grey areas, a plate (100 x 100 mm) is

introduced into the beam spread from the side.

In doing so, the optimum angle between

plate and sensor is always employed.

This therefore indicates the maximum

detection zone of the sensor.

It is not possible to evaluate ultrasonic

reflections outside this area.
