Banner Engineering Company Profile

With a compact form factor to accommodate confined spaces and placement near moving parts, the VS8 series of miniature sensors provide precise detection in applications.

With a compact form factor to accommodate confined spaces and placement near moving parts, the VS8 series of miniature sensors provide precise detection in applications.

They come in red laser, red LED or blue LED models with opposed, retro-reflective, adjustable or fixed-field background suppression sensing modes. This versatility allows the sensing technology to match the application.

Ideal for pharmaceutical handling and manufacturing, the sensors detect parts as small as 0.02 inches (0.5 millimeters) and other difficult targets, including reflective or multicolored. For easy programming, the sensors are equipped high-visibility status LEDs, an electronic push-button and remote input teach.

Features include:

  • Miniature sensor for installation in the smallest of spaces
  • Red laser models provide bright, precise laser light spot for optimum small part detection
  • Models with a blue LED reliably detect challenging targets, including dark, reflective, and transparent objects without requiring a reflector
  • High switching frequency for detection in even the fastest processes
  • User-friendly operation using electronic push button or remote input provides reliable and precise detection
  • Red laser, Red LED, and Blue LED types available to match sensing beam to application
  • Robust, glass-fiber-reinforced plastic housing
  • PNP or NPN output, depending on model
