Banner Engineering SPE1Q3 Light Curtain Emitter Assembly

The SPE1Q3 EZ-SCREEN Point Emitter is a short-range, single-beam emitter for Banner’s EZ-SCREEN Point safety light curtains, delivering a 24 ms response time and an operating range of 0.8 to 20 m (2.6 to 65 ft) when paired with compatible SPR1Q8 receivers. It uses a 3-pin Mini-style quick-disconnect (integral QD) with the test input jumpered configuration, enabling straightforward hookup to the receiver in standard EZ-SCREEN Point installations and reducing setup time during commissioning. As part of Banner’s EZ-SCREEN Point family, the SPE1Q3 is designed to guard access to automation equipment and is paired with the SPR1Q8 receiver to create a two-piece protection system for guarding doors, gates, conveyors, and robot workcells in manufacturing environments. Banner’s documentation notes that SPE1Q3 is part of the EZ-SCREEN Point lineup and may be superseded by newer replacement models, so designers should verify current part availability when sourcing for new safety-system installations.
