Q45AD9LPQ: 37629 - Banner 680 nm Photoelectric Sensor

Built for demanding industrial environments, the Banner Q45AD9LPQ offers robust performance with a polarized sensing mode and a 680 nm visible red LED beam. This configuration ensures strong signal reflection from retroreflective targets while filtering out unwanted background noise—making it highly reliable for precision detection tasks. With a sensing range of up to 6000 mm, the sensor delivers extended coverage while maintaining accuracy. Its IP67 and NEMA 4X ratings protect against dust, water ingress, and harsh cleaning conditions, ensuring long-term durability in washdown and outdoor environments. The Q45AD9LPQ features a compact rectangular thermoplastic housing that is both lightweight and rugged, with a M12 connection and 4-pin discrete output for fast wiring in control panels. Powered by a low-voltage 5–15 V DC supply, the sensor supports constant current output and includes a built-in potentiometer for fine-tuning sensitivity onsite. The acrylic lens combined with real-time LED indicators ensures quick alignment and visual diagnostics. Operating efficiently between -40°C and +70°C with a rapid 5 ms response time, this model is trusted by automation engineers for its consistent results and ease of integration.

Applications of Q45AD9LPQ: 37629 - Banner 680 nm Photoelectric Sensor

The Q45AD9LPQ is ideal for applications requiring precise object presence detection, particularly in situations where space constraints and external interference make traditional sensors unreliable. One common use case is in automated conveyor systems, where it can detect cartons or parts with reflective surfaces, ensuring accurate counting, sorting, or rejection. It is also highly effective in packaging machinery where alignment, label verification, or transparent object detection is required. Thanks to its polarized red LED beam, the sensor provides consistent performance even in environments with glossy or irregular targets. The sensor’s quick response and compact design make it suitable for robotic end-effectors, pick-and-place arms, or secondary packaging lines. For maintenance teams and engineering students alike, the Q45AD9LPQ offers a dependable, easy-to-understand sensing solution that works right out of the box, backed by Banner’s reputation for industrial innovation.
