Banner Engineering Corp. Laser Emitter Sensor, 15M, 10-30Vdc; Sensor Output Banner Engineering QS186LE14

The Laser Emitter Sensor, part number 21H6118, is designed for use in opposed-mode sensing systems and operates within a voltage range of 10 to 30 V DC. It features Class 1 and Class 2 laser diodes, which provide higher gain and extended range compared to traditional LED emitters. The sensor is capable of detecting small objects and offers precise position control due to its narrow effective beam. The device emits a modulated visible laser beam, with a typical beam size of 2.5 mm at the emitter, expanding to 16 mm at a distance of 15 m. It is available in various spot shapes, including circles, vertical lines, horizontal lines, and crosses, allowing for versatile applications. The laser beam can be enabled via a specific wiring configuration. It is important to note that this sensor is not intended for personnel protection applications, as it lacks the necessary safety features for such use. The device is not recommended for dusty or dirty environments, as these conditions can significantly reduce its effectiveness. The sensor is compatible with various Banner Engineering receivers, enhancing its utility in different setups.
