M18T Series Infrared T-GAGETM Temperature Sensor with Analog Output
Although it looks and operates just like an ExpertTM photoelectric sensor, the T-GAGE detects the infrared light energy emitted by objects instead of its own emitted light. The sensor uses a thermopile detector, made up of multiple infrared-sensitive elements (thermocouples) to
detect this infrared energy within its field of view (see “M18T Sensing Field of View” on page 2).
Potential applications include:
· Hot part detection (baked goods, metals, bottles, rubber) · Ejection verification of injection-molded parts · Flame process verification · Hot glue detection (packaging equipment, book binding) · Cold part detection (frozen foods, ice, dairy) · Roller monitoring

Sensing Field of View
Sensing range is determined by the sensor’s field of view or viewing angle, combined with the size of the object(s) being detected. The sensor’s distance-to-spot size ratio (D:S ratio) is inversely related to the viewing angle; a sensor with a small viewing angle will have a large D:S ratio. The T-GAGE M18T sensors have D:S ratios of 6:1, 8:1 or 14:1. For a sensor with an 8:1 D:S ratio, the sensor spot size is a 1″ diameter circle at a distance of 8″; farther from the sensor face the spot size will be larger.

Apparent Temperature
Two factors that have an influence on apparent temperature are the object’s emissivity and whether or not the object fills the sensor’s field of view.
Object Emissivity
A “blackbody” is a “perfect” emitter, with an emissivity of 1.0 at all temperatures and wavelengths. Most surfaces emit only a fraction of the amount of thermal energy that a blackbody would. Typical T-GAGE applications will be sensing objects with emissivities ranging from 0.5 to 0.95. Many references are available with tables of emissivity coefficients for common materials. In general, shiny unpainted metals have low emissivity, while non-glossy surfaces have high emissivity.
Shiny Surfaces
A mirror or shiny surface can redirect an object’s emitted energy to an undesired location, or even bring additional unintended thermal energy into the sensor’s field of view. See “Application Note” on page 7.
Object Size
If the object being detected does not fill the sensor’s field of view, then the sensor averages the temperature of that object and whatever else is in the sensing field of view. For the sensor to collect the maximum amount of energy, the object should completely fill the sensor’s field of view. In some applications, when the object is too small, this may not be possible. In such cases, if the object is hot enough, the thermal contrast may still be adequate to trigger the sensor output.
Alarm Output
The alarm output activates when the analog output is at 10 V or 20 mA, depending on the model (see “Figure: Analog/Alarm outputs as a function of taught conditions” on page 3).
Analog Output
Analog/Alarm outputs as a function of taught conditions
Analog Output (V dc) Analog Output (mA)
The T-GAGE analog sensor can be programmed for either positive or negative output slope, based on the teach order (see “Figure: Analog/ Alarm outputs as a function of taught conditions” on page 3).
If the cold limit is taught first, the slope will be positive; if the hot limit is taught first, the slope will be negative.
Banner’s scalable output automatically distributes the output signal over the width of the programmed sensing window.

M18T Sensor Configuration
Configure the sensor using one of two TEACH methods: · Two-Point Static TEACH · Dynamic TEACH
Use the push button or remote input to configure the sensor.
NOTE: The duration of each remote line pulse (corresponding to a push button “click”), and the period between multiple pulses, are defined as “T”: 0.04 seconds < T < 0.8 seconds.
Push Button Enable/Disable
The push button can be disabled using the remote input wire (gray) to prevent unauthorized adjustment. To disable the push button, connect a normally open switch between the remote input wire and dc common or connect the remote input wire to a digital output on a Programable Logic Controller (PLC). Perform the procedure below to enable or disable the push button, where 0.04 s < T < 0.8 s.
Method Remote Input
Pulse the remote line four times.
Action
TTTT TTT
Result
The push button is enabled or disabled, depending on the previous condition.
2-Point Static TEACH
Use 2-Point Static TEACH configuration method for applications where both ON and OFF target conditions can be presented to the sensor statically by the operator. The sensor establishes the Null (0 V or 4 mA) output condition with the first configured condition and the Span (10V or 20mA) output condition with the second configured condition, and it scales between these points.
NOTE: The sensor returns to RUN mode if the first 2-Point Static TEACH condition is not configured within 60 seconds.
NOTE: After the first condition is configured, the sensor remains in 2-Point Static TEACH configuration until the second condition is configured.

Dynamic TEACH
Use Dynamic TEACH configuration method for applications where both the ON and OFF target conditions can not be presented to the sensor dynamically by the operator. After the configuration has been completed, the analog range is optimized by the sensor halfway between the average signals presented during the Dynamic TEACH configuration.
The output slope will remain in the direction of the most recently taught Two-Point Static TEACH or default to positive.

Note: Because air temperature affects the speed of sound, the Collar should not be used with ultrasonic sensors.
Laser Alignment Tool – LAT1812 · Enables easy sensor alignment at long distances. · Kit includes one SMB1812 bracket and an M12 laser emitter. · Thread bracket housing onto barrel of mounted sensor; M12 laser emitter inserted into housing provides a precise laser spot for aiming temperature sensor. (Refer to Banner data sheet p/n 122529 for more information.) · Remove the laser emitter before using the sensor.
Product Support and Maintenance
Clean Sensor with Compressed Air and Water
Handle the sensor with care during installation and operation. Sensor windows soiled by fingerprints, dust, water, oil, etc. create stray light that may degrade the peak performance of the sensor.
Blow the window clear using filtered, compressed air, then clean as necessary using only water and a lint-free cloth. Do not use any other chemicals for cleaning.
