Q40SP6LPQ: 33395 - Banner 6 m Polarized Retro-reflective Sensor

The Banner Q40SP6LPQ sensor is built for reliability and long-distance detection using a polarized visible red LED beam. It provides a maximum sensing range of 6000 mm, making it ideal for applications where wide detection areas are required without interference from shiny or reflective surfaces. The photoelectric sensor is housed in a durable thermoplastic rectangular body with an IP67 and IP69K rating, ensuring resistance against dust, water, and high-pressure washdowns. The NEMA 4X rating further adds protection in corrosive environments like food processing, bottling, or outdoor operations. Powered by a stable 10–30 V DC supply, the Q40SP6LPQ supports a PNP discrete output and connects via a standard M12 4-pin connector. The sensor is fast and efficient, offering a quick 3 ms output response time and high repeatability of 750 µs. With a polycarbonate lens and built-in LED indicators, it simplifies setup and visual status checks. It performs reliably across a wide temperature range from -40°C to +70°C, and the 100 ms power-up delay ensures safe initialization in automated systems. Trusted by industries for its precision and durability, the Q40SP6LPQ: 33395 stands out in the Banner sensor portfolio for large-area object detection.

Applications of Q40SP6LPQ: 33395 - Banner 6 m Polarized Retro-reflective Sensor

The Q40SP6LPQ is ideal for material handling systems in warehouses and distribution centers, where it can detect boxes or pallets moving along conveyors with high speed and minimal margin for error. In automated packaging lines, it ensures accurate presence detection even when glossy packaging films or shrink wraps are used. Its polarized beam reduces false readings from reflective backgrounds, which is essential in packaging and bottling operations. This model is also widely used in automotive assembly lines for vehicle panel or component presence checks, especially where metal or painted surfaces could otherwise cause sensing issues. For logistics and e-commerce fulfillment, its 6-meter range makes it suitable for bay monitoring, carton flow lanes, or parcel sorting systems. Whether the application involves high-humidity environments, constant washdowns, or dusty industrial zones, the Banner Q40SP6LPQ delivers reliable performance, reduced maintenance, and peace of mind for engineers on the ground.
