QS18VP6LP: 61630 - Banner NEMA 4X Photoelectric Sensor

Built for performance in the toughest industrial environments, the Banner QS18VP6LP: 61630 is equipped with a visible red LED beam and operates in a polarized sensing mode, making it highly effective in detecting reflective targets with reduced false triggering. It delivers a maximum sensing distance of 3500 mm, supported by a reliable PNP output configuration. The sensor is powered by a 10–30 V DC supply and features a fast response time of 0.6 ms, enabling quick reaction in high-speed applications. Its repeatability of 150 µs and power-up delay of 100 ms ensure stable performance from the moment it’s activated. Designed with a rectangular housing and standard M18 mount, the sensor is built using ABS plastic for structural strength and incorporates an acrylic lens to protect its optics. It is certified with an IP67 rating and NEMA 4X type rating, making it resistant to dust, water jets, and corrosive cleaning processes. The integrated 2-meter cable and onboard LED indicators make installation and monitoring straightforward, while the potentiometer adjustment enables easy tuning on-site. With support for up to 95% relative humidity and operating temperatures from -20°C to 70°C, the QS18VP6LP sensor remains highly reliable in diverse manufacturing and processing environments.
