Banner Engineering Corporation SL10VB6VY Slot Sensor

Banner Engineering's SL10VB6VY is a 10 mm-wide slot sensor (fork sensor) that houses a through-beam emitter and receiver in a single rugged thermoplastic enclosure for reliable object detection in tight spaces. It operates on 10–30 V DC with a 2 m cable and provides bipolar outputs (1 NPN and 1 PNP), allowing straightforward interfacing to sinking or sourcing loads. The sensor features a 10 mm sensing range with a 2 mm minimum detectable object, a 0.3 ms response time, and 75 µs repeatability, with a potentiometer adjustment and LED indicators for status. Designed for harsh environments, it carries IP67 and NEMA 4X ratings and operates from -40 to 70 °C with up to 90% relative humidity at 50 °C, using a 5-pin configuration.
