QS18VN6R-10170 Banner Proximity Sensors

Banner Engineering QS18VN6R-10170 is a photo-electric sensor designed for through-beam system applications, functioning as the receiver component in an opposed mode setup. It features an M18 threaded mount for secure installation and operates within an ambient air temperature range of -20 to +70°C. This sensor is equipped with a pre-wired 12" (300mm) pigtail that terminates with a 4-pin MLX connector, ensuring compatibility with various systems. Part of the QS18 series, it boasts an IP67 NEMA 6 degree of protection, indicating a robust design suitable for demanding environments. The sensor operates on a supply voltage of 10Vdc to 30Vdc, with nominal values of 12Vdc and 24Vdc. Its rectangular shape is constructed from a thermoplastic housing with an acrylic lens, designed for durability. With a sensing distance of up to 20 meters, it offers flexibility in application. The QS18VN6R-10170 supports both Light-ON and Dark-ON operating modes and includes a single digital output (NPN transistor; complementary NO/NC) for versatile signaling. Its response time is notably quick at 0.75ms (0.00075 seconds), facilitating efficient operation in various automation tasks.
