WARRANTY: Banner Engineering Corp. warrants its products to be free from defects for
one year. Banner Engineering Corp. will repair or replace, free of charge, any product of its
manufacture found to be defective at the time it is returned to the factory during the warranty
period. This warranty does not cover damage or liability for the improper application of Banner
products. This warranty is in lieu of any other warranty either expressed or implied.
Apertures
Opposed-mode QS30 sensors may be fitted with apertures to narrow or shape the
sensor’s effective beam to more closely match the size or profile of the objects being
sensed. A common example is the use of “line” (or “slot”) type apertures to sense thread.
NOTE: The use of apertures will reduce the sensing range (see table below).
Model
Maximum Range
Aperture on Both
Emitter and Receiver
Aperture on Receiver Only
APQS30-040 0.5 m (1.5') 4.1 m (13.5')
APQS30-100 2.4 m (8') 14.3 m (47')
APQS30-200 11.6 m (38') 23.5 m (77')
APQS30-040H 7 m (23') 16.8 m (23')
APQS30-100H 16.5 m (54') 24.7 m (54')
APQS30-200H 28.7 m (94') 36.6 m (94')
APQS30-040V 7 m (23') 16.8 m (23')
APQS30-100V 16.5 m (54') 24.7 m (54')
APQS30-200V 28.7 m (94') 36.6 m (94')
Example: The QS30E/QS30R sensor pair is used with apertures APQS30-040. Using
the circular aperture on only the receiver, the range reduces to 4.1 m. When the
APQS30-040 aperture is installed on both the receiver and emitter, the sensor range
reduces to 0.5 m.
