18 mm photoelectric sensor for clear-object

The QS18EP6XLPCQ5 is a polarized retroreflective sensor built for detecting transparent materials on packaging and assembly lines. It operates on 10-30 V dc and provides a PNP discrete output with a 0.4 ms response time. A teach button allows quick setup without external tools.

ABS housing with M18 mount and M12 pigtail

The rectangular housing uses ABS plastic and carries an IP67 and NEMA 6 rating for wash-down environments. A 150 mm pigtail terminates in a 4-pin M12 Euro quick-disconnect for fast panel wiring. Visible red LED emission at 625 nm simplifies alignment during installation.

Replaces basic diffuse or through-beam sensors

The jump is worth it when clear bottles, films or glass panels cause false triggers on standard sensors. Polarized coaxial optics suppress glare from shiny surfaces while maintaining a 3000 mm range. Remote teach capability lets operators re-configure the sensor from the control cabinet without line access.

Questions about this item

What sensing range does the 625 nm visible red LED achieve in this polarised retroreflective sensor?

The sensor detects clear objects up to 3000 mm using a polarised coaxial beam at 625 nm wavelength.

What mounting clearance is required for the 18 mm barrel with M12 pigtail?

The rectangular housing uses an M18 thread and includes a 150 mm M12 Euro quick-disconnect pigtail for cable routing.

How is the teach button used to set the light or dark operate mode?

Press the teach button while the target is present; the sensor locks the threshold in 100 ms with 100 µs repeatability.
