The Turck QS18VP6AF300Q5 is a state-of-the-art photoelectric sensor designed for precise and reliable object detection in a variety of industrial applications. This diffuse sensor boasts an adjustable background suppression feature, enabling it to distinguish between targets and background objects within a range of 1 to 300 mm. It operates using a red light with a wavelength of 640 nm, ensuring high visibility and accuracy in detection.
Crafted with a robust rectangular design, the sensor measures 21.1 x 15 x 34.5 mm and is housed in durable ABS plastic with an acrylic lens, suitable for challenging industrial environments. The sensor is equipped with a convenient M12 connector cable, 0.15 m in length, made from PVC, and features a 4-pin configuration for easy integration into existing systems.
With an IP67 protection class rating, the QS18VP6AF300Q5 is well-protected against dust and water ingress, making it ideal for use in harsh conditions. The sensor's electrical characteristics include an operating voltage range of 10 to 30 VDC, a nominal DC operational current of less than 100 mA, and a swift response time of less than 2.5 ms, which is critical for high-speed automation processes.
The sensor also includes several LED indicators for power-on, switching state, and error notifications, providing clear and immediate feedback on its operational status. The cut-off point can be finely adjusted using a mechanical screw, allowing for precise control over the sensing range and adaptability to specific application requirements.
This Turck photoelectric sensor is a versatile and reliable choice for manufacturers and engineers seeking to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of their automated systems.
