Q4X Stainless Steel Analog Laser Sensor
Quick Start Guide
Class 1 laser CMOS analog sensor with an analog output. Patent pending.
This guide is designed to help you set up and install the Q4X Analog Sensor. For complete information on programming,
performance, troubleshooting, dimensions, and accessories, please refer to the Instruction Manual at
www.bannerengineering.com. Search for p/n 185624 to view the Instruction Manual. Use of this document assumes familiarity with
pertinent industry standards and practices.
For illustration purposes, the threaded barrel model Q4X images are used throughout this document.
WARNING: Not To Be Used for Personnel Protection
Never use this device as a sensing device for personnel protection. Doing so could lead to serious injury or
death. This device does not include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow its use in
personnel safety applications. A sensor failure or malfunction can cause either an energized or de-energized
sensor output condition.
