Description
The 45LUM Luminescence sensor provides a solution for detection of
substances which are invisible to the human eye. This sensor detects
lumiphors or flourescents which are emitted from the object being
detected. The sensor converts the UV light into a visible light, which is
then received by the luminescence sensor. This sensor can detect
particles such as glue, clear labels, oils, greases, paint, detergents, and
chalks.
The 45LUM contains a teach button to simplify the setup process and
even provides the option to remote teach the sensor. The sensor has
one discrete output which is light operate (L.O.) and it contains a small
light spot for accurate positioning. The sensor contains a rotatable
plug and is also offered with various mounting accessories to ease
installation.
The 45LUM sensor is an excellent solution to a broad range of
applications including industries such as automotive, packaging,
material handling, and food and beverage. Flourescent/lumiphores in
an object can be easily detected, however, flourescents/lumiphores
can also be added to a material and not affect the original product.

Teach Interface
How to teach the sensor
1. Familiarize yourself with the LED indicator and teach button.

Output
2. The sensing distance of the 45LUM is 5…50 mm (0.20…2.0 in.).
3. Position the target in front of sensor.
4. The optimal distance is 18 mm (0.71 in.).
5. Push the SET button for three seconds — the green and yellow
LEDs will turn on.
6. Push the SET button for one second — the yellow and green LEDs
will turn on. The teach setup is complete.

Maximum Range/Sensitivity
It is possible to configure the sensor for maximum sensitivity by
following these steps:
1. Position the sensor so that there is not target in range (nothing
closer than 50 mm).
2. Push SET for three seconds. The green and yellow LEDs will turn
OFF.
3. Push SET for one second. The green LED will turn ON.
The teach setup is completed.
Push Button Lock and Unlock
Sensors with teach or manual adjustment are flexible and can be used
in many applications. However, some engineers do not like the idea of
an operator or maintenance person making changes to the settings of
a sensor after the initial setup. These engineers often ask for fixed
range sensors. Another potential solution is to prevent adjustment by
locking the teach button.
The push button on the 45LUM can be locked. A permanent lock can
be achieved by attaching the grey wire (pin 5) to V-. If the grey wire is
connected to V-, the push button is completely ignored by the sensor
and no changes can be made. By taking advantage of this feature, the
engineer originally applying the sensor can greatly reduce the
likelihood of the settings of the sensor later being changed.

Remote Teach
The sensor can be taught remotely via the white wire (pin 2).
Connection to +V acts the same as the button being pressed and no
connection is the same as the button not being pressed. The sensor
can be taught by following the same teach/timing sequence as used
in the push button teach (e.g., connect to the +V for more than three
seconds to teach the “target,” disconnect from the +V; remove the
target and connect to the +V for less than one second to teach the “no
target” condition. All push button functions can also be carried out via
RT.
1. Connect the white wire to V+ for more than three seconds (voltage
is greater than 12…28V).
2. Teach the sensor by placing the target in front of the sensor. The
sensing distance for 45LUM is 5…50 mm (0.2…2 in.).
3. Disconnect the white wire from V+.
