Commonly installed in packaging machinery, conveyors, material handling systems, assembly equipment, and automated production lines requiring reliable non-contact object detection. Maintenance teams and system integrators use this sensor for product detection, counting, positioning, and machine control applications. The T18AW3LPQ1 belongs to Banner's EZ-BEAM T18 series designed for simple installation and adjustment-free operation. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"5ms9th\" data-start=\"684\" data-end=\"701\"\u003eApplications:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"702\" data-end=\"1291\"\u003eThe Banner T18AW3LPQ1 photoelectric sensor is commonly used for carton detection, conveyor part sensing, package counting, pallet positioning, and material presence verification in industrial environments. Typical applications include packaging equipment, bottling lines, assembly stations, warehouse automation systems, and material handling equipment requiring reliable retroreflective sensing with AC power operation. The polarized optics allow detection of shiny or reflective objects while minimizing false triggering from background reflections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"5hg6bl\" data-start=\"1293\" data-end=\"1322\"\u003eTechnical Specifications:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1323\" data-end=\"2273\"\u003e• Manufacturer: \u003cspan class=\"hover:entity-accent entity-underline inline cursor-pointer align-baseline\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"whitespace-normal\"\u003eBanner Engineering\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1376\" data-end=\"1379\"\u003e• Model \/ Part Number: T18AW3LPQ1\u003cbr data-start=\"1412\" data-end=\"1415\"\u003e• Manufacturer Part Number: 33418\u003cbr data-start=\"1448\" data-end=\"1451\"\u003e• Product Type: Photoelectric Sensor\u003cbr data-start=\"1487\" data-end=\"1490\"\u003e• Series: EZ-BEAM T18 Series\u003cbr data-start=\"1518\" data-end=\"1521\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e• Sensing Mode: Polarized Retroreflective\u003cbr data-start=\"1562\" data-end=\"1565\"\u003e• Sensing Range: 2 m (6.6 ft)\u003cbr data-start=\"1594\" data-end=\"1597\"\u003e• Supply Voltage: 20-250 VAC\u003cbr data-start=\"1625\" data-end=\"1628\"\u003e• Frequency: 50\/60 Hz\u003cbr data-start=\"1649\" data-end=\"1652\"\u003e• Current Consumption: 300 mA Maximum\u003cbr data-start=\"1689\" data-end=\"1692\"\u003e• Output Type: SPST Solid-State Light Operate Output\u003cbr data-start=\"1744\" data-end=\"1747\"\u003e• Connection Type: Integral 4-Pin Micro QD Connector\u003cbr data-start=\"1799\" data-end=\"1802\"\u003e• Housing Style: T-Style Barrel Housing\u003cbr data-start=\"1841\" data-end=\"1844\"\u003e• Barrel Diameter: 18 mm Threaded Lens Housing\u003cbr data-start=\"1890\" data-end=\"1893\"\u003e• Housing Material: Thermoplastic\u003cbr data-start=\"1926\" data-end=\"1929\"\u003e• Indicators: Dual LED Status Indicators\u003cbr data-start=\"1969\" data-end=\"1972\"\u003e• Mounting Type: Threaded Barrel Mount\u003cbr data-start=\"2010\" data-end=\"2013\"\u003e• Protection Rating: Industrial Duty Enclosure\u003cbr data-start=\"2059\" data-end=\"2062\"\u003e• Application Environment: Industrial Automation and Material Handling Systems\u003cbr data-start=\"2140\" data-end=\"2143\"\u003e• Typical Equipment: Conveyors, Packaging Machines, Assembly Equipment, and Production Lines\u003cbr data-start=\"2235\" data-end=\"2238\"\u003e• Country of Origin: United States\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"1cz0398\" data-start=\"2275\" data-end=\"2299\"\u003eCommon Replacements:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2300\" data-end=\"2426\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e• Banner T18RW3LPQ1 Photoelectric Sensor\u003cbr data-start=\"2340\" data-end=\"2343\"\u003e• Banner \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/plgautomation.com\/products\/banner-t18sn6lpq-photoelectric-sensor-range-2m-supply-10-30vdc-output-npn?_pos=1\u0026amp;_sid=9866389da\u0026amp;_ss=r\"\u003eT18SN6LPQ\u003c\/a\u003e Photoelectric Sensor\u003cbr data-start=\"2382\" data-end=\"2385\"\u003e• Banner \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/plgautomation.com\/products\/banner-qs18vp6lpq5-photoelectric-sensor-w-mounting-bracket-reflector?_pos=1\u0026amp;_sid=00e410d41\u0026amp;_ss=r\"\u003eQS18VP6LPQ5\u003c\/a\u003e Photoelectric Sensor\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PLG Automation ","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":51714373419310,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0818\/1038\/files\/Ebay_website_image_cd21773a-4bda-46df-8a8c-8e7c581efe97.jpg?v=1770424492","url":"https:\/\/plgautomation.com\/products\/banner-engineering-t18aw3lpq1-photoelectric-sensor","provider":"PLG Automation ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
