fied personnel.

Device overview
4 DB 112 B Leuze electronic
3 Device overview
The ultrasonic double sheet testing system consists of a VDB 112 B… analysis amplifier
and a pair of DB 112 UP ultrasonic sensors.
It detects and checks primarily paper, plastic and metal foils which are guided in by feeders.
The device functions as a presence monitor by constantly applying a signal at the single
sheet output when an object is located between the sensors. It functions as a double sheet
testing unit by comparing each sheet with the stored reference value. A detected double
sheet is signalled at the double sheet output.

Mounting the transmitter and receiver
Leuze electronic DB 112 B 7
TNT 35/7-24V
5 Mounting the transmitter and receiver
The transmitter and receiver (DB 112 UP) are identical in construction and are to be
mounted according to the table in figure 5.1 at an angle which varies depending on the sheet
material. A larger angle of inclination increases the flutter range; e.g. with a 35° pitch, flutter
is permissible within 50% of the measurement field. The distance between transmitter and
receiver must be at least 15mm and can be max. 30mm.
Ensure that alignment is exact (±1°). If the alignment does not run along the axis, the
working range is reduced.
Notice!
When aligning the transmitter and receiver, take care to ensure the most exact alignment
possible. See "Alignment mode" on page 9. To ensure proper function, the sensors must be
inclined by the angle "B" towards the vertical.

Notice!
If the indicators flash during the initial commissioning, a calibration must first be performed
on a single sheet.
First apply operating voltage. An alignment mode is available for commissioning. This can
be used to check the alignment of the transmitter and receiver.

After exiting alignment mode, it is absolutely necessary to perform a calibration.

Calibrating on the material to be detected
For reliable detection of double layers of the medium being processed, it is always neces-
sary to perform a calibration on a single sheet of the medium.
Calibration of the material to be detected can be performed by either pressing the TEACH IN
button on the analysis amplifier for 0.3s to 5s or by means of a control command at the
Teach IN input (pin 5).
Notice!
Setting the Teach IN input (pin 5) disables the TEACH IN button. As soon as a signal is ap-
plied once via the Teach IN input for the purpose of calibration, the TEACH IN button re-
mains inactive (disabled) until the next Power On.
During the calibration process, LED illuminates yellow.
If the calibration was successful, LED illuminates green and LED yellow. The
single sheet output is activated. The reference value remains stored until the next calibra-
tion process.
If the calibration process was not successful, LED flashes red and LED illuminates
red. The double sheet output is activated.
Notice!
Causes of unsuccessful calibration include e.g.:
• More than 1 sheet between the sensors.
• Unsuitable sheet material, e.g. due to lamination or coating, too thin, too thick, or air
pockets present.
• Pitch to sensors too low.
The VDB 112 B analysis amplifier can be operated in 3 different operating modes (teach
modes):
1. Standard mode:
Teach with intelligent transmitter/receiver control for covering a wide spectrum of
materials.
2. Automatic teach:
300ms after sheet detection by the ultrasonic sensors, teach-in occurs automatically.
In this operating mode, manual or external teaching is not necessary. A new auto-
matic teach-in is carried out if the ultrasonic path is clear for more than 2s.
3. Fixed switching threshold:
This operating mode is recommended when the process does not permit manual or
external teaching. In this operating mode, the variety of materials to be detected is
limited.

Operation - inputs and outputs
12 DB 112 B Leuze electronic
8 Operation - inputs and outputs
The analysis unit VDB 112 B/… continuously signals the situation occurring between the
sensors to two outputs.
The single sheet output (pin 2) is activated as long as one or more sheets are located in
the measurement field.
The double sheet output (pin 4) is activated as long as two or more sheets are located in
the measurement field.
Notice!
For reliable operation, it is essential that calibration be performed on the material to be
detected. See "Calibrating on the material to be detected" on page 10.

10 Application-specific extension types
The amplifier types described below are used for the adaptation to specific applications.
They are used instead of the standard amplifier types.
10.1 VDB 112 B/6.2N - Fixed switching threshold
This amplifier corresponds to the VDB 112B/6P with regard to the technical and electrical
data. The software is adapted to a special customer application.
No calibration is needed for the material to be detected as a fixed switching threshold for
double sheet detection is implemented in the amplifier.
The detection range covers papers between 40g/m² and 450g/m².
Notice!
The VDB 112 B/6.2N has no TEACH-IN button. In order to enter alignment mode if required,
the 2-pin pin strip directly on the PCB may be bridged for >5s. Afterwards, alignment can be
carried out as described under "Alignment mode" in chapter 7.
The device LEDs indicate the following error states:
In the case of VDB112B/6.2N, the operating voltage must be interrupted briefly in order to
reset the error message.
