2.0 - Introduction
Note: The following information is intended to assist
individuals with the use and support of the Bray Series 54
Proximity Sensors.
The Series 54 Proximity Sensor has been designed to provide
valve position indication utilizing various signal types. Each
of these configurations will be covered in more detail on the
pages that follow.
All Bray S54 Proximity Sensors utilize solid state switches.
Although the solid state switch performs the same function
as a conventional mechanical switch, there are differences in
the way solid state switches operate.
NOTICE
It is very important for the user to pay close attention
to the exact specifications of their sensor in order to
avoid damaging the unit.
Solid state switches have current restrictions imposed by the
semi conducting materials used to form the sensor. These
current limitations have to be accounted for during setup.
Unlike mechanical switches, which can normally handle several
amperes of current flowing through them, solid state switches
are generally rated for half an ampere or less.
NOTICE
The electrical characteristics of the S54 must be
compatible with the application
When working with the S54, several parameters must be
considered. A few of which (with significant importance) are
listed here:
• operating voltage
• maximum switching current
• output voltage drop
• residual current.
Using an S54 outside of these parameter limits can cause
damage to the unit and void factory warranty.
Operating voltage is the amount of voltage necessary for the
sensor to operate. The maximum switching current is the largest
amount of current that the sensor’s solid state electronics can
have flowing through them in the on-state (when the target is
in proximity of the sensor). During commissioning, it is up to
the user to correctly apply the sensor to their control system in
order to limit the current flowing through the device. All the
necessary information can be found in the technical manual.
Output voltage drop is defined as the amount of voltage that will
drop across the solid state switch. This voltage drop will often
vary with the amount of current flowing through the sensor
and the load. This drop in voltage becomes paramount when
connecting several proximity sensors in series, each unit will have
a voltage drop across it – adding each subsequent drop and
subtracting from the supply voltage yields the resulting voltage
at the end of the series connection. The user needs to ensure
that the supply voltage is large enough so that the resulting
voltage after all the drops is above the minimum operating
voltage of the last S54 in the series connection. Sensors located
a great distance from the load require consideration as well, as
a general rule, every 1000 ft. of wire will have a resistance of
10Ω (see electrical code references for the resistance value of
specific wire sizes). It is important for the customer to ensure
that the distance between the S54 and the control panel is
not long enough to cause the voltage drop to fall below the
minimum operating voltage of the sensor.
Residual current is often referred to as leakage current. In the
“off” state (target is NOT in proximity of the sensor) the sensor
draws a small amount of current in order to power the device’s
electronics. This is necessary for the device to sense the target
at any point in time when the supply voltage is applied. It is
important that this residual current is below the maximum
off-state current rating of the control system.
2.1 - Pre-installed Storage
Bray Series 54 Proximity Sensors are not weatherproof until
the unit is properly installed, or all conduits and applicable
port connections are sealed off and prepared for storage. The
units may be shipped with temporary covers to prevent foreign
matter from entering through the conduit openings; however,
the user is responsible for replacing with the proper sealing
plugs to support its NEMA/IP ratings.
To prevent condensation from forming inside the unit, maintain
a near constant external temperature and store indoors in a
well ventilated, clean, dry room. The temperature shall be
between 40°F (4°C) and 85°F (29°C), with a relative humidity
less than 70%. Store units away from vibration and direct
sunlight exposure, and place units on a shelf or wooden pallet
in order to protect against dampness. Keep units covered to
protect against dust and dirt; if storing for long term, placing
the unit inside a plastic sealed bag may be preferred.
Bray cannot accept responsibility for deterioration caused on-
site once the cover is removed or due to improper storage.

2.4 - S54 Operation Overview
Bray’s inductive sensors use a contactless indication system
designed to monitor the position of rotary devices. An activator
is mounted on to the actuator center pinion. As the valve is
actuated the open and close positions are measured by the
rotation of the activator. The activator contains a metal insert
that activates the corresponding inductive switch in the sensor.
This activation is relayed to the end user to validate valve position.

Based on the position of the pinion/activator one of the metal
inserts on the activator will be directly in front of the switch.
When the valve is open, one of the metal inserts is directly in
front of the sensor. This signals the end user of an open signal
and illuminates the corresponding LED. When the valve is
closed the other metal insert activates the second switch. This
signals the end user a closed signal and illuminates the second
LED. The function of each switch can be selected by the end
user. This can be done by adjusting the activator to match the
actuator position (see Section 3.2.4) or by configuring the PLC.
All activators can be configured to be used for clockwise or
counter-clockwise valve operation.

3.3 - Adjusting the Activator
Adjustable activators are for customers that want the flexibility
to position their indication limits outside of the standard zero
to ninety degrees. The three pieces of the adjustable activator
can be rotated in five degree increments. To adjust follow the
steps below:
1. Loosen the allen head bolt which holds the three pieces
of the activator on the pinion.
2. Rotate the relevant piece until the desired amount of travel
is achieved.
a. Use the incremental degree marks on the activator
for reference.
3. Ensure the yellow indicator is set to match the valve disc
position.
4. Tighten the allen head bolt.
3.4 - Adjustable High Visibility Activator
1. Remove the two activator cover bolts.
2. Remove activator cover by pulling up and away from the
actuator.
3. Loosen center allen head bolt holding the activator to the
pinion.
4. Rotate the relevant piece of the activator until the desired
amount of rotation is achieved.
a. Insure that the open and close activator is visible when
the cover shield is installed.
5. Re-tighten the center allen head bolt locking the activator
to the pinion.
6. Install the cover and mounting bolts.

4.0 - Connections (Operation)
Bray offers three different connections to satisfy the customer’s
application requirements. Each sensor’s pin connection is
listed in its respective technical manual. Turn off all power and
lockout/tag out service panel before installing or modifying
any electrical wiring.
4.3 - Sensor
and Solenoid
(Independent)
Bray also offers sensors
with dedicated solenoid
outputs. In this set up the
sensor signaland solenoid
power are transmitted on
the main system side line.
The solenoid is activated
via power supplied from
the sensor through the
S-connector. S-connector
selection can be found
in the sensor technical
manual.
4.2 - Sensor and
Solenoid (Shared)
Y-connectors are used to
allow solenoid control on
sensors without dedicated
solenoid outputs. The
system side line carries
both the sensor and
solenoid power. The
system side line splits to
supply power and signal
to sensor and solenoid.
4.1 - Sensor Only
Sensor connection sup-
plies sensor power and
signal output.

4.4 - Cable Gland Connections
M20 cable gland connections are found on the following
sensors:
540032-71104533
540013-71104533
540015-71104533
540102-71104533 (included in Kit PN 540102-126xx536)
In order to field-wire these models, follow these guidelines.
1.Take the sensor cover off. The cover should be kept on
hand for reference.
2.Wire the sensor as per the wiring diagram on the outside
of the sensor cover or technical specification sheet.
3.Close the cover and securely tighten cover screws
Range of wire size gauge acceptable
(single conductor per terminal)
General: 16 to 28AWG
Industrial: 14 to 22AWG
Hazardous: 14 to 22AWG
NOTICE
Cable glands used must be certified in accordance
with the application. The temperature range of cable
glands must be selected according to application. The
degree of ingress protection must not be reduced by
cable glands.
The cable gland connections must be properly sealed
to maintain the Ingress Protection rating of the S54
sensor. Use a seal that meet the requirements of the
application.
If the sensor is mounted on a vertical pipe, it is
recommended that the sensor be positioned with the
cable glands on the bottom to prevent condensation
from entering the sensor through its conduits.
In all cases, the conduit should be positioned to prevent
drainage into the sensor
Ensure adequate drainage of wiring conduit to prevent
water contamination inside sensor
