Industrial T18SP6RQ Photoelectric Sensor 18mm

The TURCK Banner T18SP6RQ Photoelectric Sensor in an 18 mm M18 housing delivers reliable long-range, non-contact object detection for industrial automation. As an opposed‑mode receiver, it detects objects that interrupt a transmitted infrared beam with a sensing range of 0–20 m and operates on 10–30 VDC with a complementary PNP output. It switches at up to 160 Hz with a response time under 3 ms, and it is protected to IP67 and IP69K while tolerating temperatures from −40 °C to +70 °C. Built with a thermoplastic housing and a polycarbonate lens, it uses an M12 × 1 4‑pin male connector and provides LEDs for power, switching status, alarm, and excess gain. This sensor is commonly installed on conveyors, packaging machines, material handling equipment, and automated lines where long‑distance, non‑contact detection improves process reliability. Example replacements include TURCK Banner T18SN6RQ, T18SP6LPQ, and QS18VP6RQ8.
