The Q12AB6FF30Q: 72111 - Banner Light Operate Photoelectric Sensor is built to deliver precise and stable object detection in fast-moving industrial applications. Featuring a background suppression (fixed) sensing mode and a 30 mm maximum sensing distance, it is optimized to detect objects clearly without interference from nearby surfaces or reflective machinery parts. The visible red LED beam (wavelength: 640 nm) provides a clear spot for alignment, ensuring consistent installation accuracy across automation setups.
This photoelectric sensor is housed in a durable thermoplastic rectangular body and includes a robust polycarbonate lens for added optical stability and impact resistance. Its IP67 rating makes it suitable for environments exposed to dust, moisture, and occasional washdowns. Powered by a 10โ30 V DC supply, the sensor offers bipolar output (NPN & PNP), allowing flexible integration with PLCs and control systems without extra converters. The M8 connector with 4-pin configuration supports easy plug-and-play wiring in compact panels or machine frames.
With a fast 0.85 ms ON/OFF response time, 175 ยตs repeatability, and a 120 ms power-up delay, the Q12AB6FF30Q ensures rapid, noise-free operation in real-time sensing applications. It performs reliably across a wide temperature range of -20ยฐC to +55ยฐC and up to 95% humidity, making it a trusted choice for electronics assembly, packaging lines, and robotic sensing needs.

The Banner Q12AB6FF30Q: 72111 Photoelectric Sensor is designed for reliable short-range detection in tight spaces. In packaging and labeling lines, it ensures correct positioning of cartons, pouches, and containers before sealing or printing operations. Its light operate mode is ideal for confirming presence during well-lit conveyor processes, reducing false triggers caused by background surfaces.
In electronics manufacturing, this sensor accurately detects PCBs, connector pins, and small components with minimal mounting clearance. Its 30 mm fixed range enables consistent detection in feeder systems, robotic pick-and-place arms, and inspection jigs. The M8 connector simplifies installation in space-restricted machinery, and the quick response time supports high-throughput workflows.
Industrial engineers and maintenance teams appreciate the LED alignment spot and diagnostic indicators for fast commissioning and servicing. Whether used in compact enclosures, motion-guided automation, or high-speed assembly lines, the Q12AB6FF30Q provides accurate, interference-free detection with long-term operational stability.
