Banner U-GAGE®ultrasonic sensor applications.
OVERHEAD CRANE GUIDANCE
Product:T30U
Objective:The T30 sensor is programmed to signal the crane to stop when
the crane is at a preset distance from a load. Remote TEACH-mode
response settings for the sensor are applied by a system controller.
Sensor Model:T30UDNB dual-discrete ultrasonic sensor.
Operation:A T30U sensor mounted above the conveyor may be used to
detect small differences in product height.

EMPTY COMB VERIFICATION
Product:T18U
Objective:Verify that no hard disks remain on the "comb" following the
rinsing procedure.
Sensor Model:T18U opposed ultrasonic sensor pair.
Operation:Originally, the hard disk substrates being rinsed in the comb
rinsing machine were aluminum, and it was easy to tell, using standard
photoelectric sensors, whether any disks remained in the rack following the
rinsing procedure. When clear glass substrates are used, however, an
ultrasonic opposed sensor pair can reliably sense whether any disks remain.
(Photoelectric clear object detection sensors are not recommended for this
application because of the spray rinse.)
ROLL DIAMETER MONITORING
Product:Q45UR and Flat-Pak Remote Sensor
Objective:To monitor the payout of a roll of material.
Sensor Model:Q13C2.0 remote ultrasonic sensor and Q45UR3LIU64C
analog controller.
Operation:The Flat-Pak remote ultrasonic sensor and its controller work
together to provide roll diameter information to a process controller. The
OPTO-TOUCHTMoptical touch button is used to program remotely using the
Q45UR controller’s TEACH input.
LIQUID LEVEL MONITORING
Product:QT50U
Objective:To monitor the level of liquid in a tank.
Sensor Model:QT50U sensor with analog output.
Operation:The narrow beam of the QT50U allows the sensor to be
mounted at the top of a storage tank without its beam reaching the tank wall.
As the liquid level changes, the sensor sends an ongoing signal that is scaled
to represent the current depth of liquid in the tank.
