RPS-409A-IS Intrinsically Safe Self Contained Sensor0 pages
Migatron Corporation - 2002
The RPS-409A-IS is an intrinsically safe,
analog ultrasonic sensor. It is a self-contained
sensor in a 30mm PVC barrel housing. It is
powered by 16-30VDC with reverse polarity
protection.
The RPS-409A-IS has a short circuit protected
analog 0-10VDC output. The analog
voltage is a fixed volts per inch based on the
maximum range of the unit. For example using the
RPS-409A-80-IS, the output is a linear 0.125
volts per inch. A target placed 10 inches from the
sensor will result in an output signal of 1.25 volts
or a target placed at 80 inches from the sensor will
result in an output of 10 volts.

Features
The RPS-409A-IS has built-in temperature
compensation to provide accurate readings
throughout the entire operating temperature range.
An LED indicator is provided. The LED is
green when not detecting and changes to red when
a target moves into place. The sensor is completely
sealed and the connection is made by way
of IP and NEMA rated cables.
Besides the input and output lines there is
a sync/enable line provided. This can be used for
connecting multiple sensors together to prevent
cross talk, or to fire the sensor at a particular time.
The RPS-409A-IS is designed to take
advantage of today's PLC and computer analog
input cards. The numerical values that are programmed
into the PLC or computer will determine
the zero and span.
If a set point or set points are required in
the application, please refer to the Migatron SPC-
701, SPC-704, or M-1000 control products.
Both the SPC-704 and M-1000 can also provide
excitation power to drive the sensor.
