Banner Photoelectric Sensor, 10 to 30V DC Supply Voltage, 4-Pin Electrical Connection - MINI-BEAM SM312 Series - SM312LVQD


Need to detect object proximity in your industrial automation operations? Choose this photoelectric sensor from Banner for the job. Its retro-reflective detection type means that both the transmitter and receiver are in one unit, so it's ideal for systems which are short on space. The device sends out an LED beam that's bounced back by a separate reflector, returning the signal to the receiver. Toggle between light or dark operating modes to ensure effective performance in changeable ambient conditions. This sensor's reinforced thermoplastic PET housing takes heat, chemicals and impacts in its stride.

Features & Benefits


• IP67 rating indicates it's completely dust-tight and withstands temporary immersion in 1m of water
• 5m detection range makes it ideal for small-scale applications
• Inbuilt protection against transient voltages and reverse polarity to prevent downtime
• Suits use in demanding environments, with an operating temperature range between -20°C and +70°C

Applications


• Automotive manufacturing
• Conveyor systems
• Safety doors and gates
