L-GAGE™ Q50 Series with Complementary Discrete Outputs
LED-Based Linear Displacement Sensor with Complementary Discrete Outputs and
TEACH-Mode Programming
L-GAGE Q50 Complementary Discrete Output Sensor Features
• Cost-effective LED-based complementary-discrete sensor
• Fast, easy-to-use TEACH-Mode programming; no potentiometer adjustments
• Models available with either 4 or 48 millisecond response speed
• Models available with either visible red or infrared beam
• Teach a sensing window (2 switch points) or teach single switch point
(adjustable field mode)
• Two sensing ranges, depending on model: 100 to 300 mm (visible red beam
models), and 100 to 400 mm (infrared beam models)
• Good color sensitivity
• Remote TEACH input for security and convenience
• Two bicolor Status LEDs
• Choose 2 meter or 9 meter unterminated cable, or swivel 5-pin Euro-style QD
connector
• Rugged construction withstands demanding sensing environments; rated IEC IP67,
NEMA 6
