Rugged metal slot sensor

The Banner SLM50B6 is a fixed-distance slot sensor with a rugged nickel-plated zinc die-cast housing rated IP67 and NEMA 6. It operates on a 10-30 V dc supply and provides bipolar NPN and PNP outputs through a 2 m cable. The sensing slot width is 50 mm with an overall depth of 80 mm and a minimum object detection of 0.6 mm.

Installers needing reliable presence detection

This sensor suits applications where a durable metal housing and high ingress protection are required, such as industrial automation and packaging lines. It is not intended for buyers who need a quick-disconnect fitting, remote-teach adjustment, or a sensing range beyond 50 mm.

50 mm slot width and 0.6 mm minimum detection

The 50 mm slot width and 0.6 mm minimum object detection define whether this sensor can resolve the target in your application. The fixed-distance design with 0.5 ms response time and 95 µs repeatability supports consistent edge detection for opaque objects passing through the slot.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and is a mounting bracket or separate power supply needed?

The box contains one SLM50B6 slot sensor with a fixed 2 m (6.5 ft) cable. No quick-disconnect connector, mounting bracket or separate power supply is included; the sensor operates directly from any 10-30 V dc source.

How do I decide between the NPN and PNP outputs on this single sensor?

The sensor provides both outputs simultaneously — one NPN and one PNP — so you do not choose between them; wire the output type your controller requires and leave the other unused.

What does the 0.6 mm minimum object detection mean on a production line?

It means the sensor will reliably detect any opaque object 0.6 mm or larger passing through the 50 mm slot, with a 0.5 ms response time and 95 µs repeatability.
