Banner Engineering QS18VP6LD Photoelectric Sensor

The Banner Engineering QS18VP6LD is a World‑Beam QS18 Series diffuse photoelectric sensor designed for dependable object detection on compact automation lines. It offers a 300 mm (12 in) sensing range with a 10–30 V DC supply and a PNP output, and can be configured for dark‑on or light‑on operation to suit varying background conditions. This model ships with selectable cable options—the standard 2 m integral cable and the W/30 variant with a 30 ft potted cable—while the LO/DO configuration option provides flexible control integration for PLCs or logic circuits. The QS18VP6LD is a diffuse mode sensor in Banner’s QS18 family, a compact housing designed to mount unobtrusively in tight spaces and detect common parts on conveyors, packaging lines, or automated assemblies without the need for a separate reflector. Typical applications include detecting parts on assembly lines, presence verification, and process monitoring where contactless sensing is essential.
