It operates in convergent mode with a 16 mm focal point and uses a visible red beam at 650 nm to create a narrow, well-defined sensing zone ideal for recognizing tiny components on conveyors, packaging equipment, or assembly fixtures. The unit is powered from 10 to 30 V DC and delivers a bipolar output: 1 NPN and 1 PNP, enabling straightforward interfacing to standard PLC inputs without additional electronics. A standard 2 m (6.5 ft) pre-wired cable simplifies installation in confined enclosures, and Banner also offers the SM312CV W\/30 variant with a longer 9 m (30 ft) cable for extended reach. As part of the MINI-BEAM family, the SM312CV combines a small form factor with reliable convergent sensing performance, making it suitable for detecting small components or features where space is at a premium on production lines and in compact automation cells.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Banner","offers":[{"title":"Used Surplus - Excellent Condition","offer_id":51676515303726,"sku":null,"price":34.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0818\/1038\/files\/Ebay_website_image_53909e85-27fb-41fd-a458-6ac127d74aec.jpg?v=1769551494","url":"https:\/\/plgautomation.com\/products\/banner-engineering-sm312cv-mini-beam-photoelectric-sensor","provider":"PLG Automation ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
