The Q12RB6R by Banner is a receiver-type photoelectric sensor designed for use in conjunction with an emitter for through-beam sensing applications. It offers a maximum sensing range of 2000 mm, making it suitable for large-scale detection systems in factory automation. Built with a tough rectangular thermoplastic housing and a clear polycarbonate lens, it ensures resistance to mechanical stress and environmental factors like dust and water. The sensor is rated IP67, enabling it to withstand harsh operating conditions commonly found in manufacturing and packaging lines.
Operating on a 10β30 V DC power supply, this model includes a 2-meter cable connection for flexible installation and easy wiring. Though it lacks a specified output signal in the datasheet, its discrete input-output configuration and 3-pin interface allow integration with standard control systems. It provides fast response timesβ1.3 ms ON and 0.9 ms OFFβwith 175 Β΅s repeatability, ensuring high accuracy in time-critical detection scenarios. The visible red LED with a 640 nm wavelength allows for quick alignment during setup. The LED indicators simplify visual diagnostics, and the 120 ms power-up delay supports safe startup behavior. With a wide operational temperature range of -20Β°C to +55Β°C, the Q12RB6R is ready for reliable deployment in virtually any industrial environment.
Applications of Q12RB6R: 72137 - Banner
The Q12RB6R is a popular choice for applications requiring long-range object detection, such as in pallet conveyors, automated warehouse gates, packaging lines, and production monitoring systems. Its dark operate mode enables output when the beam is blocked, making it ideal for detecting the presence or absence of objects. Itβs especially useful in systems where precise detection of fast-moving or large components is essential. Engineers appreciate its robust IP67 sealing, which protects the sensor in environments with water spray, dust, or vibration. With its compact size, durable cable, and dependable sensing performance, this Banner photoelectric sensor helps streamline automation workflows while reducing maintenance downtime.
