Suppression Sensor
The WORLD-BEAM QS18 Adjustable-Field Foreground Suppression Sensors feature simple multi-turn screw adjustment of cutoff distance.



Banner Engineering (Minneapolis, MN) introduces the WORLD-BEAM QS18 Adjustable-Field Foreground Suppression Sensors, designed to reliably detect objects regardless of color, reflectivity, surface irregularities or background conditions. The sensors universal mounting design makes installation quick and easy, while a simple screwdriver adjustment allows for precise setup of sensing range. Features include:

  • A compact and IP67-rated sealed housing.
  • Operates in diffuse mode, detecting light returned by the background, but ignoring light returned by the object.
  • Available in 2 adjustable cutoff ranges: 15-40 mm and 30-200 mm.
  • Objects detected to the face of the sensor (no dead zone).
  • Simple multi-turn screw adjustment of cutoff distance.
  • Crosstalk immunity algorithm allows 2 sensors to be used in close proximity.
  • Visible red emitter for simple sensor alignment.
