Banner Engineering D11SP6FPQ Sensor Amplifier

The Banner Engineering D11SP6FPQ Fiber Optic Sensor Amplifier is a compact, self-contained amplifier in Banner’s D11 Series for plastic fiber optics, designed to interface with Banner plastic fiber sensors and convert fiber beam signals into a standard DC output. It operates from 10 to 30 V DC and provides a complementary PNP (sourcing) output suitable for common control circuits, with a 4-pin Pico QD connector for easy wiring. The unit includes a 2 m (6.5 ft) cable and carries an IP54 enclosure rating, making it suitable for general industrial environments where dust and humidity are present. It accepts unterminated plastic fibers or T5 terminations, and the sensing range varies depending on the fiber type and installation conditions. As a model in Banner’s D11 Plastic Fiber Optic family, the SP6FPQ version is part of a line where range is determined by the fiber and termination used, rather than by the amplifier alone. Note that this specific model is listed as obsolete by Banner, with guidance to contact Banner for information about suitable replacements.
