1 Product Description
Radar-Based Sensors for Detection and Measurement of Moving and Stationary Targets
•
Pulsed coherent radar (PCR) detects moving and stationary objects
•
Bright, visible indication; available in Pro models with configurable LEDs
•
Adjustable sensing field—ignores objects beyond setpoint
•
Easy setup and configuration of range, sensitivity, and output using the Banner
Radar Configuration Software
•
Sensing functions are immune to wind, fog, steam, and temperature changes and
resistant to rain and snow
•
Compact, rugged IP67 housing withstands harsh environments
WARNING:
•
Do not use this device for personnel protection
•
Using this device for personnel protection could result in serious injury or death.
•
This device does not include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow its use in
personnel safety applications. A device failure or malfunction can cause either an energized (on)
or de-energized (off) output condition.

1.2 Overview
The K50R is an industrial radar sensor that uses high frequency radio waves from an internal antenna.
The K50R detects a wide variety of materials including metal, water, or organic materials. Configure the sensor using
software or remote input wires to sense objects up to a specific distance, ignoring objects beyond this distance (background
suppression). Or teach the sensor a reference point to detect the presence or absence of an objects (retroreflective).
