SM30 Series 30 mm Barrel Sensor

Opposed-Mode Infrared Photoelectric Sensors for Especially Demanding Applications

• Stainless steel or plastic barrel models

• Very high excess gain; 150 m (500 ft) sensing range; 880 nm Infrared LED

• Positive sealing eliminates even capillary leakage; lens is quad-ring sealed; exceeds
NEMA 6P (IP67) ratings – ideal for equipment wash-down environments

• EZ-BEAM® technology provides reliable sensing without the need for adjustment

• Modulation frequency “A” is standard; frequencies “B” and “C” also available for
preventing crosstalk in multiple-sensor applications (emitter and opposed receiver
frequencies must match)

• AC- and DC-operated receiver models available; emitters feature Universal voltage

• Range for all models: 150 m (500 ft). See page 3 for performance curves.

* Any emitter and receiver shown here can be used together, if they have the same modulation frequency.
** Standard 2 m (6.5 ft) cable and integral QD models are listed. A model with a QD connector requires a mating cable; see page 4. To order the 9 m (30 ft) cable: add

suffix “W/30” following the Frequency suffix of any cable model (e.g., SM30PRLBW/30).
† AC models with QD require SM30CC model cables; see page 4.

WARNING . . . Not To Be Used for Personnel Protection

Never use these products for personnel protection. Doing so could lead to serious injury or death. These devices do NOT include the self-checking redundant circuitry
necessary to allow their use in personnel safety applications. A device failure or malfunction can cause either an energized or de-energized output condition. Consult your
current Banner Safety Products catalog for safety products that meet OSHA, ANSI, and IEC standards for personnel protection.
