PICO-GUARD Controller
Instruction Manual
Each PICO-GUARD Fiber Optic Safety System requires a
controller, optical fiber and one or more pairs of optical
elements. Controllers include the controller instruction manual
(this document), the application and design guide, and
controller mounting hardware. See the Banner Engineering
Machine Safety Catalog or www.bannerengineering.com for
available optical elements.

2.2 Plastic Optical Fiber
Plastic optical fiber for use with Banner PICO-GUARD
optical elements is available in bulk form (to be cut to
length in the field) or precut lengths with polished ends for
maximum excess gain. Both are available in three styles:
standard polyethylene jacketed solid-core plastic fiber for
most applications; polyethylene jacketed solid-core plastic
fiber with a PVC sheath to withstand mechanical abrasion or
harsh duty; and polyethylene jacketed solid-core plastic fiber
with fluoropolymer sheathing to withstand harsh chemicals
or gases. Accessory sheathing is also available to provide
additional protection for any of these fibers. A fiber cutter (for
bulk fiber) is shipped with each PICO-GUARD controller.
