Safety advisories
Laser Protection Regulations
The emitter corresponds to Laser Class 2
according to IEC 60825-1. This means that no
additional precautions need to be taken for
operation. The device should be installed so that the laser
warning label is easily visible.
These devices may not be used in applications where the
safety of persons depends on device function.
The CE Mark verifies that our products meet the
requirements of the current EMC Directive.
In our EMC Laboratory, which is accredited by the
DATech for Testing of Electromagnetic Compatibility,
proof has been documented that these Balluff products
meet the EMC requirements of the following harmonized
standard EN 60947-5-2.
Application
Only for NFPA 79 applications (machines with a supply
voltage of maximum 600 volts). Device shall be connected
only by using any R/C (CYJV2) cord, having suitable ratings.
Principle of operation
The BOS 63M works according to the principle of time of
flight. A light pulse is sent out, reflected from the object
and received again. The time of flight of this light pulse is
measured and converted into an analog signal.
Display and operating elements
1) Error indicator (red)
2) Output function indicator
Out 2 (yellow)
3) Output function indicator
Out 1 (yellow)
4) Power on indicator
(green)
5) 4-turn potentiometer for
switching distance 1 (Out 1)
6) 4-turn potentiometer for
switching distance 2 (Out 2)
Fig. 1: Display and operating elements
The
green LED
indicates the ready state of the sensor.
The
yellow LED
“Out 1” indicates the „active“ state of
switching output 1.
The
yellow LED
“Out 2” indicates the „active“ state of
switching output 2.
The
red LED
indicates that the intensity of the received
signal for reliable operation is not sufficient.
The
potentiometers
are used to set the switching
distances of the sensor independently of each other.
Installation
1) Optical axis of emitter
2) Optical axis of receiver
3) Display and control panel
4) rotatable by 270°

Setting the switching distance
1. Install and align the sensor.
2. Position the object in the beam path and turn the
potentiometer Out1 until the yellow LED comes on
(output active).
3. Remove the object. The LED should go out (output
inactive). This sets the switching distance.
4. Optional: To store the second object position, reposition
the object.
The procedure with potentiometer Out 2 is the same as
described in steps 2 and 3.
