PHOTOSWITCH® Bulletin 45PVA Part Verification Array
IMPORTANT: SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE USE.
Description
The Allen-Bradley 45PVA is a photoelectric Parts Verification
Features
S Robust metal enclosure with super slim 13mm profile
Array designed for bin picking applications and object
detection in the parts assembly industry. When used as part of
a suitably configured bin-picking system, the 45PVA effectively
prevents mispicks to enhance efficiency and minimize down
time. It is also the ideal solution to address the “error proofing”
initiatives prevalent in the automotive industry.
The 45PVA uses an array of LEDs to create a light screen that
can be spanned across bins at an assembly station. By
mounting the sensors on parts bins and wiring them into a
controller programmed with the necessary logic, a virtually
error-free bin-picking process can be achieved. ‘Job lights’ on
the 45PVA will not only show the assembler the bins required
to complete the current process, but will also indicate the
correct picking sequence. In the event the assembler attempts
to pick an incorrect part, a selectable warning light on the
45PVA will illuminate to indicate the error; additional fault
enunciation can be achieved via controller logic in conjunction
with a tower light or audible alarm.
S Large highly-visible job indicator lights
S Optional Red warning light indicator to notify operator of
incorrect component selection
S Dip switch selectable lighting operation for job lights
S Transmitted beam or selectable retroreflective/diffuse
sensing modes
S NPN or PNP dip switch selectable output reduces inventory
S Two frequency dip switch selectable cross talk protection
S Different sizes are available for different component racks.
Transmitted beam models are available in four sizes (100
mm (4 in), 225 mm (9 in), 300 mm (12 in), and 375 mm (15
in)). Retroreflective/diffuse models are available in two
sizes (100 mm (4 in) and 225 mm (9 in)).
In addition to increasing efficiency and quality control by
preventing faults in the bin-picking process, the 45PVA is
instrumental in personnel stress reduction and the
simplification of personnel training—especially in multi-lingual
facilities.
The automatic sensitivity adjustment can be turned on or off. (Regardless of this setting, sensitivity is always adjusted when
the power is turned on.)
3. Selectable operation mode (transmitted beam receiver)
The output mode of the receiver can be selected for light or dark operate.
The output mode can be selected for Normally Open or Normally Closed.
4. Selectable warning indicator
Select the warning indicator mode.
5. NPN/PNP selectable switch
Select the transistor mode for the output and the job indicator input.
NPN Output (PNP Input)

6. Selectable frequency
The frequency can be switched to eliminate crosstalk.
Input/Output Circuit and Wiring
The NPN/PNP input of the job indicator and the NPN/PNP output are selected by mode switch.

Cross-Talk Elimination
When two or more sensors are installed close together the sensors may interfere with each other and not operate correctly. In that
case, flip the frequency switch on one set of sensors. For transmitted beam, transmitter and receiver pairs must be set to the
same frequency.

An additional method for dealing with sensor cross talk interference is by alternating the direction of transmitter/receiver pairs. The
same effect can be achieved with the retro/diffuse model by setting the units up back to back.

Job Indicator & Warning Indicator
The green job indicator LED is on when the input to the PVA is on. The output signal is turned on when the target is present
(when in Dark On or Normally Open mode). For example, when the operator’s hand is in the bin. The red warning indicator is on
when the target is present and the input is off.
