OR18W.TI-ZZZP.9VO is the emitter half of the Baumer OR18W through-beam pair, in a washdown stainless steel 1.4404 (V4A) housing rated IP 67/69K. It carries no switching output - it only sends the infrared beam, and the matching OR18W receiver does the detecting.

• Housing: stainless steel 1.4404 (V4A), M18 x 1 thread, 67.2 mm long, PMMA lens
• Environment: IP 67/69K; -25...+55 °C
• Operating range: 13 m actual (nominal 20 m), pulsed infrared diode 880 nm
• Emission power: adjustable, 270° potentiometer
• Supply: 12...30 V DC, max. 40 mA

OR18W.EI-PW1P.9VO is the receiver half of the Baumer OR18W through-beam pair, in a washdown stainless steel 1.4404 (V4A) housing rated IP 67/69K. It switches when the beam from the matching OR18W emitter is interrupted, so the emitter has to be ordered with it.

• Housing: stainless steel 1.4404 (V4A), M18 x 1 thread, 67.2 mm long, PMMA lens
• Environment: IP 67/69K; -25...+55 °C

OT500.GL-PLPVB.72F is a background suppression photo sensor from the Baumer OT500 series, measuring by time of flight over a 150...2500 mm switching range. A red laser diode (680 nm, laser class 1) forms a point beam focused at 1500 mm, and switching follows the measured distance rather than the amount of reflected light.

• Switching range: 150...2500 mm (Tw), set by qTeach or an external teach wire
• Output: PNP, complementary (Light operate), output current 50 mA
• Repeat accuracy: ≤ 1200...4300 µm, linearity error ± 10 mm
• Supply: 12...30 V DC, consumption max. 60 mA
• Housing: plastic (ASA, PMMA), 18 x 45 x 32 mm, PMMA optics window
• Environment: IP 67, -20...+50 °C
• Connection: M12 connector, 5 pin

The complementary output gives an NO and an NC signal at the same time, so the operating mode need not be chosen before installation. Teaching is done either with qTeach on the housing or through an external wire, which allows the switching distance to be re-taught from the control cabinet. Suppression of reciprocal influence allows several sensors to be mounted side by side.

Vibration and shock resistance tested to IEC 60068-2-6:2008 (10 g, 10...2000 Hz) and IEC 60068-2-27:2009 (50 g / 11 ms).

CE and UKCA compliant.

OT300.GL-GLZZJ.72N is a background suppression photo sensor from the Baumer OT300 series in a miniature housing, measuring by time of flight over a 100...1800 mm switching range. A red laser diode (680 nm, laser class 1) focused at 700 mm forms a narrow point beam, and the measured distance value is available over IO-Link.

• Switching range: 100...1800 mm (Tw), set by teach-in or IO-Link
• Output: push-pull (PNP/NPN) and IO-Link V1.1.3, Class A, Light operate, switchable
• Repeat accuracy: ≤ 1400...5500 µm, linearity error ± 10 mm
• Supply: 12...30 V DC, consumption max. 60 mA
• Housing: plastic (ASA, PMMA), 12.9 x 32.3 x 23 mm
• Environment: IP 67, -20...+50 °C
• Connection: M8 connector, 4 pin

Response time is selected over IO-Link: < 4 ms in High Speed, < 8 ms in Standard and < 50 ms in Long Range mode, so the same sensor suits both a fast sorting line and a longer distance with weak remission. Operating hours, operating cycles, supply voltage and device temperature are also readable over IO-Link.

Vibration and shock resistance tested to IEC 60068-2-6:2008 (10 g, 10...2000 Hz) and IEC 60068-2-27:2009 (50 g / 11 ms).

O200.SL.T-GW1J.72NV/F160_H006 is a Baumer O200 miniature SmartReflect light barrier tuned for transparent objects. It forms the barrier between itself and a fixed machine surface, so no reflector is mounted opposite, and an object is detected by the 5% signal attenuation that even a clear bottle or film produces.

• Background position Sde: 15...180 mm, teachable; scanning range 90%...85% Sde
• Detection: minimum signal attenuation 5%, focus at 160 mm
• Output: push-pull, light/dark operate, 50 mA
• Communication: IO-Link V1.1, port class A, 230.4 kBaud, cycle ≥ 0.6 ms
• Supply: 10...30 VDC, typ. 10 mA at 24 VDC; response time < 0.25 ms in High Speed mode
• Housing: rectangular 8 x 25.1 x 15.8 mm, ASA plastic, PMMA optics, M3 stainless steel threaded sleeves; laser class 1, 680 nm
• Environment: IP 67, -20...+50 °C; connection M8 4-pin flylead connector, 200 mm

It is used on filling and labelling lines for PET bottles, glass containers, clear film and blister packs, and wherever there is no room or no mounting point for a reflector on the far side. Background tracking compensates for lens contamination and slow changes in the reference surface, so the threshold stays usable between cleaning intervals; the compensation and the switching point are also readable and settable over IO-Link.

O200.GL-GW1J.72NV/F040_H006 is a Baumer O200 miniature background suppression sensor with a focused laser beam converging at 40 mm, where it resolves objects down to 0.05 mm. Switching point, hysteresis, time filters and counter are set by qTeach, line teach or over IO-Link V1.1, and the same interface returns a 16-bit distance measurement, excess gain, quality and alarm bits.

• Sensing distance Tw: 20...120 mm, teachable; sensing range Tb 3...132 mm
• Output: push-pull, light/dark operate, 50 mA
• Communication: IO-Link V1.1, port class A, 230.4 kBaud, cycle ≥ 0.6 ms
• Supply: 10...30 VDC, typ. 10 mA at 24 VDC
• Response time: ≤ 0.25 ms in High Speed mode, jitter ≤ 0.06 ms
• Housing: rectangular 8 x 25.1 x 15.8 mm, ASA plastic, PMMA optics, M3 stainless steel threaded sleeves; laser class 1, 680 nm
• Environment: IP 67, -20...+50 °C; connection M8 4-pin flylead connector, 200 mm

The focused beam suits small targets and narrow gaps - wire ends, thin edges, holes in a moving strip, or the boundary between stacked sheets. The distance value returned over IO-Link lets a controller follow signal drift long before the switching output starts to fail.

O200.GR.F-PV1Z.72NV/H006_BX15 is a Baumer O200 miniature background suppression sensor with a fixed 15 mm switching distance and V-optics, in which the emitted and received beams cross on the object itself. That geometry gives a repeatable switching point on shiny and transparent surfaces, where coaxial optics read the specular reflection instead of the object.

• Sensing distance Tw: 15 mm, fixed, no adjustment; sensing range Tb 3...15 mm
• Detection: smallest object typ. 0.05 mm at 10 mm
• Output: PNP complementary, light/dark operate, 50 mA
• Supply: 10...30 VDC, typ. 16 mA at 24 VDC; response time < 1 ms
• Housing: rectangular 8 x 25.1 x 14.1 mm, ASA plastic, PMMA optics, M3 stainless steel threaded sleeves; red LED 644 nm
• Environment: IP 67, -30...+50 °C
• Connection: M8 4-pin flylead connector, 200 mm

The fixed preset means commissioning is mounting and wiring only - there is nothing to teach and nothing that can be turned later. It is used at short fixed distances against glass, film, foil and polished metal: edge detection on packaging film, presence of a vial or ampoule, label and blister checks.

O200.GP-GW1J.72NV/E022_H006 is a Baumer O200 miniature background suppression sensor whose PinPoint LED light is shaped into a line beam. The line covers the full width of an irregular or perforated object, so a part with holes, slots or a ragged edge gives one switching signal instead of a burst of short pulses.

• Sensing distance Tw: 20...120 mm, teachable; sensing range Tb 3...132 mm
• Detection: line beam, smallest object typ. 8 mm at 60 mm
• Output: push-pull, light/dark operate, 50 mA
• Communication: IO-Link V1.1, port class A, 230.4 kBaud, cycle ≥ 0.6 ms
• Supply: 10...30 VDC, typ. 16 mA at 24 VDC; response time < 0.25 ms in High Speed mode
• Housing: rectangular 8 x 25.1 x 15.8 mm, ASA plastic, PMMA optics, M3 stainless steel threaded sleeves; 644 nm
• Environment: IP 67, -30...+50 °C; connection M8 4-pin flylead connector, 200 mm

Typical positions are perforated trays, mesh baskets, crates with gaps and bottle cases on a conveyor, where a point beam would drop out each time it passes an opening. Teach-in is by qTeach or line teach and every parameter is also reachable over IO-Link, so a format change can be loaded from the controller instead of being set by hand at the machine.

O300.RP-PV1T.72CU is a miniature photoelectric sensor from the Baumer O300 series working against a reflector over a 5 m range. A polarisation filter lets the sensor respond only to the light returned by the reflector, so shiny metal or film in the object's place is not read as a reflector.

• Range: 5 m actual, 6 m nominal, with polarisation filter
• Output: PNP complementary, NO and NC at the same time, light / dark operate, < 100 mA
• Supply: 10...30 V DC, typical consumption 25 mA
• Housing: rectangular, plastic (ASA, PMMA), PMMA optics, 12.9 x 32.3 x 23 mm
• Environment: IP 67, -25...+60 °C
• Connection: 2 m cable, 4 cores

The sensor suits counting and presence checks on conveyors and packaging lines where the sensor and the reflector can face each other. Sensitivity is set with qTeach by holding a ferromagnetic tool against the housing, and mutual interference between sensors mounted side by side is suppressed.

SME312D is a Banner MINI-BEAM Expert diffuse-mode photo sensor with an infrared 880 nm beam and 380 mm range. Sensitivity is set by TEACH instead of a potentiometer.

• Environment: IP 67, -30...+55 °C
• Connection: M8 connector, 4 pin

The sensor suits presence checks on conveyors, assembly stations and packaging machines where mounting space is tight and the unit is swapped without rewiring. The M3 threaded sleeves allow the sensor to be fixed directly, without a separate bracket.

Vibration resistance tested to IEC 60068-2-6:2008 (10 g, 10-2000 Hz) and shock resistance to IEC 60068-2-27:2009 (50 g, 11 ms).

S30SP6FF600Q is a Banner S30 series fixed-field photo sensor with an infrared 880 nm beam and a 600 mm cutoff. It compares the light returned to a near and a far detector, so it detects objects in front of the cutoff and ignores the background behind it.

• Sensing range: 600 mm cutoff
• Output: PNP, SPDT - NO (Light Operate) and NC (Dark Operate), 150 mA each
• Response: 3 ms ON/OFF; repeatability 750 µs

• Environment: IP69K, NEMA 6P, -40...+70 °C
• Connection: integral M12 4-pin male connector

The cutoff is fixed and there is nothing to adjust. Excess gain peaks at about 40 mm from the lens, which is where low-reflectivity targets are detected most reliably; backgrounds belong well beyond 600 mm, and mirror-like ones can cause false switching. A yellow LED shows the NO output on and flashes at marginal excess gain.

FHDK 14P5101/S35A is a Baumer standard-size photo sensor with background suppression. It compares where the reflected beam lands on its internal detector, so an object is detected regardless of its colour or surface reflectivity while everything beyond the set distance is ignored.

• Switching distance: 20...350 mm, adjustable by a 10-turn mechanical potentiometer
• Output: PNP, Light/Dark Operate, < 100 mA
• Supply: 10...30 V DC, typical consumption 25 mA
• Housing: rectangular, 14.8 x 43 x 31 mm, plastic (ASA, MABS), PMMA optics
• Environment: IP 67, -25...+65 °C
• Connection: M8 connector, 4-pin

The sensor suits presence and position control in packaging, assembly and sorting machines where the background sits close to the object and dark or glossy surfaces give a standard diffuse sensor a false reading. A flashing light indicator shows insufficient signal margin or a soiled lens, so alignment and maintenance need no instruments. Reciprocal influence is suppressed, so several sensors can be mounted side by side.

Q25S2P6RQ is the receiver of a Banner EZ-BEAM Q25 series opposed-mode photo sensor pair, in the S2 version for sensor bus junctions. Besides the sensing output it has a second PNP output that warns when the received signal becomes marginal.

• Sensing range: 20 m with a Q256EQ emitter
• Output: PNP Light Operate sensing output and PNP NO alarm output, 150 mA total
• Response: 3 ms ON, 1.5 ms OFF; repeatability 375 µs
• Supply: 10-30 V DC, 20 mA
• Housing: PBT polyester, polycarbonate lens, epoxy-encapsulated electronics
• Environment: IP67, NEMA 6P, -40...+70 °C
• Connection: integral M12 4-pin male connector
