* Standard 2 m (6.5 ft) cable models are listed. To order the 9 m (30 ft) cable model, add suffix “W/30” to the model number (e.g.,
SME312LV W/30.) To order the 5-pin Euro-style QD models, add suffix “QD” (e.g., SME312LVQD). Models with a QD connector require
a mating cable.

MINI-BEAM® Expert™ is a complete family of sensors, all housed in the popular, ro-
bust and compact rectangular housing. Their large push button and easy-to-see indi-
cators provide easy configuration, alignment, and monitoring during use.
Retroreflective and Polarized Retroreflective Mode models are excellent for sens-
ing relatively small items where opposed-mode sensing is not possible. They are rec-
ommended for relatively clean environments where high excess gain is not required.
Polarized models filter out unwanted reflections.
Polarized Retroreflective Mode – Clear Object Detection models reliably detect the
presence of clear objects.
