INTRODUCTION
Thru-beam sensors consist of a source and detector posi-
tioned on opposite sides of a detection zone. The source emits
infrared and visible red light, which is received by the detector.
The detector output switches when this beam of light is either
blocked (when set for dark operation), or completed (light
operation). Note that a wide beam source will not work with a

long range detector and a wide beam detector will not work
with a long range source .
This manual covers both forward viewing and right angle
viewing models. Although the units differ in the location of the
lenses, the basic fundamentals of installation, setup, and
operation are nearly identical. The two types of sensors may be
intermixed with no change in optical performance.
MOUNTING
The Comet sensor features a threaded housing and includes
jam nuts and washers. This allows mounting into any 0.75 inch
hole, or a model 6161A-6501 “L” bracket. Use caution to avoid
cross-threading the jam nuts on the sensor body. Tighten nuts
to less than 4 N•m (36 in.-lbs. or 3 ft.-lbs.) torque to avoid
stripping threads.
A second mounting method is to use #4 hardware in the 0.125
inch diameter mounting holes in the flat sides of the sensor.
This is ideal for mounting the Comet against a wall, piece of
equipment, rail, mounting bracket, etc.

MOUNTINGLOCATION AND SETUP
Mount the source and detector units so they are aimed directly
at each other from opposite sides of the target. (The detector
should be on the dirtier side because the light scattering effect
of dirt collecting on the lens is less significant if it takes place
at the detector.) Ensure that the area of the target to be
detected will block the entire effective beam (see illustration at
right). Apply power to both units.
Accurate sensing depends on proper alignment of the source
and detector. To begin, the source and detector must be
positioned in rough alignment so that source light is received
by the detector (check by placing a solid object in front of the
source beam—the output indicator on the detector will change
when the object blocks the beam, and change back when the
object is removed). If the output indicator does not change,
follow one or both of these two rough alignment methods:
1.The source emits visible red light. Look at the source with
your eye positioned close to the detector. Mount the detector
in the area where the source light is brightest.
2.Place a retroreflector over the lens of the detector. Look at
the detector with your eye positioned close to the source.
Mount the source in the area where the light reflected from
the retroreflector is the brightest.
The detector must be placed within
the source beam pattern
(the area containing all
the light rays emitted
by the source).
The source must be placed
within the detector field of
view for the detection
system to operate.
Only the light
source rays that
travel in a straight
line to the receiver
(the diameter of the lens)
will be detected. An object
must fully block this beam
in order to be detected.

Obtain final alignment by moving the detector back and forth in
the horizontal axis to find the extreme positions where the
output indicator on the detector goes “off” (for dark operate
models, or “on” for light operate models). Position the detector
midway between the two extremes. Repeat this procedure for
the vertical axis, then tighten the source in place. Now repeat
the final alignment procedure for the source.

OPTICALPERFORMANCE
All optical specifications are guaranteed to be the minimum
performance under clean conditions of any product delivered
from stock. Typical performance may be higher.
Dirt in the environment will affect optical performance by
reducing the amount of light the control receives. For best
results, sensors should be used at distances where excess
gain is higher than 1.5 (1.5 times the amount of sensing power
required to detect an object under ideal conditions). Higher
excess gain will allow the sensor to overcome higher levels of
contamination on the lens.

WIRINGDIAGRAMS
For wiring cable versions, the color codes shown are the actual
wire colors emanating from the sensor. For connector ver-
sions, the pin numbering and color codes shown are typical of
several manufacturers, however, variations are possible. In
case of discrepancies, rely on function indicated and pin
location rather than pin number or color code.
