Description

The new VLS/DA1 Series Optical Speed Sensors with a 0-6V Analogue Output via an integral Digital/Analogue converter. It is designed for data logging applications where general speed monitoring of machines is required. The output updates each 3 or 30 revolutions, depending if you are using Range 1 or Range 2.

Features

  • Rapid response to speed change – output is updated once per resolution (ie 3 or 30 RPM)
  • Linear voltage vs speed output
  • Wide angle of incidence ± 80° degree
  • On Target indicator standard
  • Contact Adaptor available
  • Easy installation
  • Rugged Glass filled nylon housing
  • Mounting brackets available

Termination

Black 0V Output
White 0-6vDC Output
Green 0V Supply
Red +ve Supply (7-15vDC)
Blue Connect to 0V for 0-6,000 Range
Not connected for 0-60,000 Range

NB: Only connect the two 0V wires (Black and Green) together at the power supply. This is to prevent any voltage drop along the 0V conductors causing a DC offset on the output.
