Banner Engineering Corporation DF-G3-PU-Q5 Sensor

The Banner Engineering DF-G3-PU-Q5 is the DF-G3 Series Red Beam High Power Dual Display Fiber Amplifier, a long-range fiber optic sensor amplifier that supports both plastic and glass fibers. It accepts 12–30 V DC input and provides one PNP discrete output plus a 0–10 V analog output, with a 150 mm (6 in) PVC pigtail and a 5-pin M12 quick-disconnect (Q5) connector. Built in a thermoplastic housing, the unit is IP50 and NEMA 4X rated, operates from −10 °C to 55 °C, and tolerates up to 90% relative humidity at 60 °C. Notable features include remote teach, crosstalk avoidance, and dual digital displays for independent output and sensing status, with a minimum response time of 0.5 ms and repeatability in the 100–180 µs range, depending on fiber configuration. Range varies by fiber type and is dependent on the fiber used.
