Photo sensor QS18VP6AF300Q, BGS 30-300mm, PNP NO/NC, 10-30VDC, M8 4-pin pigtail, IP67

QS18VP6AF300Q is a Banner QS18 series background suppression sensor that detects objects up to a cutoff distance set between 30 and 300 mm and ignores anything beyond it. The cutoff is set with a five-turn screw on the housing, without teach or software.

• Sensing range: cutoff adjustable 30...300 mm; minimum range 4...10 mm depending on cutoff
• Output: complementary PNP (NO and NC), 100 mA total; response 2.8 ms, repeatability 250 µs
• Supply: 10-30 V DC, < 16 mA
• Housing: QS18, 18 mm thread, ABS, acrylic lens; visible red LED, 640 nm
• Environment: IP67, NEMA 6, -20...+55 °C
• Connection: 150 mm cable with M8 4-pin male connector

For mirror-like objects, mount the sensor close and tilt it so the reflection is directed away from the receiver. A crosstalk algorithm lets two sensors work next to each other.
