QS18 ’World Beam’ Series

The WORLD-BEAM QS18 series of photoelectric sensors offer exceptional optical performance in compact QS18 housing and a unique space saving housing design that directly replaces barrel/rectangular style sensors.
The sensors have a reliable detection when a fixed background is present and the object colour or shape when the shape varies.
The QS18 series of sensors are available in opposed, polarized or non-polarized retro-reflective, convergent, regular or wide-angle diffuse, laser, ultrasonic, plastic or glass fibre optic, fixed-field and adjustable-field sensing modes.

• ABS housing with 3mm mounting hardware included
• 10Vdc to 30 Vdc supply voltage
• Single turn sensitivity potentiometer on retro and diffuse models (finger or screwdriver adjustable)
• Solid-state complementary (SPDT): NPN or PNP (current sinking or sourcing), depending on model
• 2 LED indicators on sensor top
• Fast response times
• 2m pre-cabled or 4-pin, 150mm Pico-style pigtail connector.
• Operating temperature range -20 to +70°C
• IEC IP67, NEMA 6 Rated
