Banner SM30PRLQD Photoelectric Sensor: 150m Receiver, 10-30VDC

3 min read wayne Product News

Introduction

Petro Auto Tech is pleased to offer the Banner SM30PRLQD photoelectric sensor receiver. This device belongs to the SM30 series and serves as a receiver in opposed mode sensing. It provides reliable long-range detection for demanding industrial automation environments.

Key Features

The SM30PRLQD delivers a maximum sensing distance of 150,000 mm (150 meters), making it suitable for large-scale applications like warehouse corridors or conveyor systems. It operates on a supply voltage of 10-30 V dc and offers bipolar outputs (NPN and PNP), giving engineers flexibility when integrating with various controllers.

The sensor features a rugged thermoplastic housing with a 30 mm barrel diameter and an IP67 rating, ensuring protection against dust and water ingress. Its NEMA 4X rating adds resistance to corrosion and washdown environments, which is critical in food processing or chemical plants.

With an operating temperature range from -40°C to 70°C and a maximum relative humidity of 90% at 50°C, the SM30PRLQD performs reliably in extreme conditions. The integral 7/8-inch mini quick disconnect simplifies installation and maintenance, reducing downtime.

Technical Specifications

The sensor uses an infrared LED sensing beam and has an output response time of 10 ms, enabling fast detection in high-speed production lines. It supports both light operate and dark operate modes, providing application flexibility. The repeatability of 1000 µs ensures consistent performance over time.

The SM30PRLQD includes 4 pins and features encapsulated electronics for enhanced durability. It does not include timing functions, remote teach, or washdown-rated features, but its robust design focuses on reliable opposed-mode sensing over long distances.

Applications

In material handling, the SM30PRLQD excels at detecting objects across wide aisles or entry points, triggering automated doors or conveyor stops. Its 150-meter range allows for precise alignment in large warehouses or distribution centers.

In packaging lines, the sensor can monitor product flow over long distances, ensuring consistent spacing and preventing jams. The NEMA 4X rating makes it suitable for washdown environments in food and beverage facilities.

For assembly lines, the receiver works with a compatible emitter to verify part presence or position, supporting quality control processes. The bipolar output simplifies connection to PLCs or safety relays.
