QS18VN6LPQ-72238 Banner Proximity Sensors

Banner Engineering QS18VN6LPQ-72238 is a polarized photo-electric sensor designed for versatile applications, featuring an M18 threaded mount for secure installation. It operates within an ambient air temperature range of -20 to +70°C and is built in a rectangular shape with a thermoplastic housing and an acrylic lens. This sensor is part of the QS18 series and is designed to work in retro-reflective mode with potentiometer adjustment for precise control. It comes pre-wired with a 25" pigtail terminated with a 4-pin Pico-style M8 connector for easy connection. The QS18VN6LPQ-72238 offers a sensing distance of up to 3.5m and utilizes visible red light for detection. It supports both Light-ON and Dark-ON operating modes and includes a single digital output (NPN transistor; complementary NO/NC) for signal processing. The response time is notably quick at 0.6ms / 0.0006 s. This sensor is protected against ingress with an IP67 NEMA 6 rating and requires a supply voltage of 10Vdc-30Vdc (12Vdc / 24Vdc nom.) for operation.
