Built with precision and engineered for tough environments, the Banner M12ND: 77180 sensor delivers diffuse sensing performance with a maximum range of 400 mm. It operates using a Visible Red LED beam with a wavelength of 660 nm, enabling detection of various surface types, including shiny, matte, or uneven materials. The sensor is housed in a robust 12 mm nickel-plated brass barrel, ideal for space-limited or embedded automation zones. The PMMA lens ensures optical clarity, while the IP67 and IP68 ratings guarantee protection against dust, water, and chemical exposure. With NEMA 4X compliance, itβs ready for use in harsh washdown and outdoor environments. It connects via a 2-meter cable and supports 10β30 V DC input with NPN discrete output. The fast 0.5 ms response time and 95 Β΅s repeatability allow consistent detection in fast-moving operations, while a 100 ms power-up delay ensures stable start-up behavior in automation systems.
The M12ND sensor is a trusted choice for automation engineers looking for fast setup and long-term reliability. Its 4-pin design allows quick wiring into most industrial controllers, and the potentiometer adjustment offers on-site fine-tuning. LED indicators give real-time feedback, improving efficiency during setup and maintenance. Whether in packaging units, conveyor belts, or machine positioning, this sensor consistently delivers accurate detection without requiring external reflectorsβmaking it a maintenance-friendly and cost-effective choice in modern factories.
Applications of M12ND: 77180 - Banner
The Banner M12ND: 77180 Diffuse Photoelectric Sensor is well-suited for close-range detection where installation space is tight and reflectors are not feasible. Itβs commonly used in assembly lines to confirm part presence, especially in automated jigs and fixtures. In packaging machines, it detects labels, cartons, or irregular-shaped products without the need for mechanical contact. The high IP rating makes it reliable in pharmaceuticals and food processing units where moisture and frequent cleaning are routine. This sensor also helps material handling teams monitor bin levels, chute jams, and product flow with ease. Designed to integrate seamlessly into PLC systems, the M12ND sensor supports rapid deployment across a wide range of sectorsβfrom small-scale factories to high-speed industrial lines.
