Q3X Versatile, Rugged Laser Contrast Sensor
Robust, high speed performance sensor for part-detection applications with small contrast differences.
Banner Engineering has introduced a new versatile, rugged, laser contrast sensor, the Q3X. The Q3X expands the types of applications that Banner sensors can solve due to its rugged metal housing, a three-digit display for easy to read feedback and versatility in solving challenging part-detection applications with small contrast differences. The Q3X offers a fast 250 microsecond response speed, a reliable 300 mm detection range, bipolar PNP an NPN outputs, and superior ambient light immunity.
