All-Purpose Photoelectric Sensor

The Banner QS18VN6W is a diffuse-mode photoelectric sensor designed for general-purpose proximity detection. It operates on a 10-30V dc supply and provides a complementary solid-state NPN output. The unit features a 100 mm sensing range and is supplied with a 2 m cable for direct wiring.

Suits Simple Presence Detection

This sensor suits applications requiring basic object presence sensing within a short 100 mm range using infrared LED technology. It is not suited for applications needing longer detection distances, opposed-mode through-beam sensing, or remote teach functionality. Builders requiring IO-Link connectivity or DeviceNet integration should look at alternative models.

Capacity and Headroom

The sensor reliably detects objects up to 100 mm with a 0.6 ms output response time and 150 µs repeatability. It operates continuously between -20 °C and 70 °C with a maximum relative humidity of 95% at 50 °C. The IP67 and NEMA 6 rated ABS housing protects internal electronics in wet or dusty environments.

Questions about this item

What supply voltage must my system provide for the QS18VN6W sensor?

The sensor operates from 10 to 30 V dc, so your power supply must deliver within that range.

Will the 100 mm sensing range still detect targets if I keep my existing mounting bracket?

Yes, the diffuse mode detects objects up to 100 mm away regardless of bracket, provided the beam path stays clear.

How can I confirm the sensor is powered and switching correctly after wiring the 2 m cable?

The indicator LEDs show power status and output state; a 0.6 ms response time means the output changes within that window when a target enters the 100 mm range.
