The QS18AF series of sensors has been updated with new technology which triples the maximum detection range. A new detection algorithm allows the sensor to see further and continue providing the excellent background suppression performance.

• Tripling of scanning distance in the same QS18 housing. Enhanced immunity to fluorescent lights
• Cross talk immunity so sensors can be used in close proximity to each other
• Reduced color sensitivity and hysteresis compared to the existing QS18AF100 mm sensor at comparable range.
• Short range background suppression model for precise background suppression, allowing detection of thinner objects closer to the background.
• Models with foreground suppression mode
