In the event of an accumulation of undetected faults, a remote external test (or check) is required to maintain the safety function. Figure 1. Banner EZ-SCREEN Type 2: emitter, receiver, and two interconnecting cables Electrical connections are made through M12 quick-disconnect connectors. An optional connection that provides sensor interchangeability (or “swapability”) – the ability to install either sensor at either QD connection – is possible. Using a parallel ...
