Information About S18SN6FF100Q
The S18SN6FF100Q is part of the Banner Engineering EZ-BEAM® S18 Series, which incorporates fixed-field background suppression technology to detect objects within a defined sensing zone while ignoring background surfaces. This model operates as a self-contained DC-powered sensor with complementary NPN outputs supporting light or dark operate modes. The 18 mm threaded thermoplastic barrel housing is fully encapsulated and rated IP67/IP69K and NEMA 4X/NEMA 6P for washdown environments. Integrated LED indicators provide output status and signal strength monitoring, including marginal gain indication.
Key Features:
-
Fixed-field sensing: 100 mm defined detection range with background suppression.
-
DC operation: 10–30 VDC supply voltage.
-
Complementary NPN outputs: Discrete light/dark operate configuration.
