About Switches and Sensors
On the 990-F4, sensors and limit switches provide input to the PLC as part of the automation of
the door cutting process. Inputs can include feed through, door clamping, door location, and limits
of movement of machine assemblies.
Sensors are electronically tripped while limit switches are mechanically tripped. It is important to
keep the sensors cleaned and aligned to keep the door process running smoothly. There are two
classifications of sensors: Photo Electronic and Inductive Proximity Sensor.
The Photo Electronic Detector uses light as a trigger.
• Photo Eye Detectors contain both emitter and receiver.If an
object is within the Photo Eye’s sensing field light from the emitter
is reflected from the object back to the receiver. With
no object
is
in front of the Photo Eye a constant 24VDC is sent to the PLC. If
an object is sensed by the Photo Eye, 0VDC is sent to the PLC.
• As a result, any of the photo detectors output equals 0VDC when a
door is sensed.
• Some detectors have an emitter and receiver built in one unit, such
as an in-feed sensor where a door blocks the light and reflects back
to the unit.
• Some detectors have an emitter and receiver built in separate units, such as the
through beam sensor set at a distance from each other. If an assembly is in between
the two sensors the machine will not operate.
One Package
The Proximity Sensor detects metallic objects without touching them.
• An inductive proximity sensor consists of a coil and ferrite core
arrangement, an oscillator and detector circuit, and a solid-state
output. The ferrite core and oscillator create a field generating out
the front of the sensor. When a metal object enters the field, a loss
in amplitude occurs. The detector circuit recognizes the
loss of amplitude and generates 0VDC to send to the
PLC. When the metal object leaves the sensing area, the
sensor to returns to 24VDC and sends it to the PLC.
• As a result, if a metal object is sensed, the output of the
sensor equals 0VDC
