Banner Engineering QS18VP6AFF40 Background Suppression Optical Sensor

The QS18VP6AFF40 is Banner Engineering’s compact World‑BEAM background‑suppression optical sensor designed to reliably detect parts at close range, with a maximum sensing distance of 40 mm and an adjustable cutoff range from 15 to 40 mm. This DC powered device operates from 10 to 30 V, provides a PNP output, and uses a visible red LED sensing beam for straightforward alignment. Built for industrial environments, it carries IP67 and NEMA 4X protection, making it suitable for conveyors, packaging lines, and tight spaces where background clutter could cause false triggers. The sensor supports background‑suppression operation with Dark‑ON/Light‑ON output behavior and is part of Banner’s QS18 family, compatible with Banner WORLD‑BEAM amplifiers and accessories for integrated automation systems.
