Signal Transmission The possible transmission distance is essentially determined by the highest occurring signal frequency, the properties of the transmission line and the input of the connected receiving device. When connected to our equipment for fixed installation, signal frequency of 25000 Hz can be safely transmitted over a distance of up to 500 m.
Direction of rotation signal for sensor series A5S1DD3…-n / A5S1DS3…-n The sensor indicates the direction of rotation by a constant signal, which is either high or low depending on the direction (see below for level values). The change is instantaneous as soon as a pole pitch (e.g., 1 tooth) has passed the sensor.
1.10 Level and shape of the output signal Rectangular pulses at low frequencies and with short lines. At higher frequencies and with long lines, the signal at the receiver becomes a saw tooth tread profile. Pulse pitch depends on the profile shape, when sampling a gear wheel profile, it is about 1:1. The level is the same over the entire speed range.

Unbedingte Beachtung aller Punkte der mitgelieferten Betriebsanleitung ist hierbei Voraussetzung. Strict observance of the operation manual is an indispensable precondition, hereto. Unterzeichnet für und im Namen der BRAUN GmbH / Signed for and on behalf of BRAUN GmbH Waiblingen, 19-JAN-2021...
Hazardous protection The safety requirements as determined by EN 1127-1, as well as the corresponding national regulations, are to be complied with regarding primary explosion protection, i.e. measures which prevent or restrict the formation of a hazardous explosive atmosphere. In the case of secondary hazardous protection, i.e. measures that prevent the ignition of an explosive atmosphere surrounding electrical equipment, the series of standards applicable to EN 60079 and the relevant national regulations must be observed.
Safety Notes for Installation and Operation General Instructions The sensors of series A5S1…-n are built and tested according to standards DIN EN 61010-1 (VDE 0411-1) and have left the factory in a perfectly safe condition. To maintain this condition and to ensure safe operation, the user must follow the instructions contained in this manual. Connection and maintenance work may only be performed by adequately qualified personnel and only when the power supply is switched off.
Current consumption: approx. 15 mA (one channel sensor) resp. 25 mA (two channel sensor), plus load (can increase up to 60 mA with long transmission length and high signal frequency). If power supply isn’t provided by a BRAUN device, a PELV resp. SELV power supply has to be used.
