Some of thisemitted energy reflects back to the receiving antenna. Signal processing electronics in the sensor determine the distancefrom the sensor to the object based on the time delay of the return signal. The sensor can be configured (using a PC orremote input wire) to sense objects up to a specific distance, ignoring objects beyond this distance (also called backgroundsuppression).1 For additional countries, contact Banner Engineering.2 Models with a quick disconnect require a mating cordset.
