Banner Engineering SM312LVAG-29040 Smart Sensor

The SM312LVAG-29040 Mini-Beam sensor from Banner Engineering is a compact, self-contained DC-operated detector that brings polarized retroreflective sensing into tight spaces. As part of Banner’s Mini-Beam line, this model uses extended-range polarized retroreflective sensing to reliably detect targets from 10 mm up to 3 m (0.4 in to 10 ft) when used with a compatible reflector such as Banner’s BRT-3. The AG suffix indicates the polarization-filtered retroreflective configuration designed to minimize false triggers caused by glare or ambient reflections, making it well-suited for cluttered industrial environments. Its small footprint supports easy mounting on conveyors, assembly stations, and other automation equipment, delivering presence/absence sensing without demanding valuable space. The SM312LVAG-29040 is a complete, self-contained device within Banner’s DC Voltage Series, offering straightforward integration with Banner control systems and automation hardware for dependable performance in manufacturing and packaging applications.
