Retroreflective Models
Excellent for sensing small items where opposed-mode sensing is not possible.
Recommended for relatively clean environments where substantial excess gain
is not required. Polarized models filter out unwanted reflections.

Convergent-Mode Models
Convergent-mode sensors feature high excess gain and can detect objects of low reflectivity.
They are a good choice for counting radiused objects with no space between them, for
accurate position sensing, and for sensing clear materials that travel near the beam’s focus. Visible red, 660 nm

Convergent Mode
* 9 m (30') cables are available by adding suffix “W/30” to the model number of any cabled sensor (e.g., QS12VN6CV10 W/30). A model with
a pigtail QD requires a mating cable (see page 7).
**Range specifications for retroreflective and polarized retroreflective sensors are largely dependent on target size and design.
