As part of Banner’s MINI-BEAM family, the SM312FP is designed for plastic fiber, with sensing range determined by the chosen fiber and mounting configuration. It accepts a 10–30 V DC supply and provides a bipolar DC output (one NPN and one PNP) through a 2 m (6.5 ft) cable, allowing straightforward connection to standard PLC inputs and control circuits. A front‑panel potentiometer offers on‑device sensitivity adjustment so you can fine‑tune the threshold to your target and fiber installation. The SM312FP’s plastic-fiber variant delivers flexible installation for curved or constrained fiber runs, making it well suited for applications such as detecting small parts on conveyors, verifying component presence in crowded assemblies, or reading indicators in recessed locations where a traditional fixed sensor would not fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Banner","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":51676509471022,"sku":null,"price":71.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0818\/1038\/files\/Ebay_website_image_c3970e4e-7cc9-41a4-af21-dc30f4847a40.jpg?v=1769551493","url":"https:\/\/plgautomation.com\/products\/banner-engineering-sm312fp-fiber-optic-sensor","provider":"PLG Automation ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
