Banner Engineering Corporation BA24S Fiber Optic Sensor

Banner Engineering's BA24S Glass Fiber Optic Sensor provides reliable presence sensing with a 36 mm optical sensing range and a glass fiber probe that lets you position the sensing point where access is restricted. It offers an NPN/PNP output, enabling easy interfacing with most PLCs and automation controllers in either sinking or sourcing configurations. The unit is IP67-rated, supporting use in dusty, wet, or washdown environments. Designed for applications where space is tight or the target is behind protective covers or inside equipment, the BA24S is commonly used for detecting small parts on conveyors, monitoring components inside housings, and confirming the presence of parts through glass or plastic barriers. The sensor integrates with Banner's glass fiber optic accessory ecosystem, providing compatibility with standard Banner fiber optic cables and mounting options for flexible routing and installation. With a compact form factor and proven Banner reliability, the BA24S delivers a straightforward, durable optical sensing solution for automation tasks requiring precise, repeatable output signals.
