• For 4-pin integral Pico-style QD, add suffix Q7 (example, QS18EN6LPQ7). • For 4-pin 150 mm Pico-style pigtail, add suffix Q (example, QS18EN6LPQ).
† Retroreflective range is specified using one model BRT-84 retroreflector. Actual sensing range may differ, depending on the efficiency and reflective area of the

MINI-BEAM® DC Specifications
Supply Voltage and Current 10 to 30V dc (10% max. ripple) at less than 25 mA (exclusive of load)
Supply Protection Circuitry Protected against reverse polarity and transient voltages
Output Configuration Bipolar: One current sourcing (PNP) and one current sinking (NPN) open-collector transistor; light operate (LO) or
dark operate (DO) selectable.
Output Rating 150 mA max. each output at 25° C, derated to 100 mA at 70° C (derate ≈ 1 mA per ° C)
Off-state leakage current: less than 1 µA
Output saturation voltage (PNP output): less than 1 volt at 10 mA and less than 2 volts at 150 mA
Output saturation voltage (NPN output): less than 200 millivolts at 10 mA and less than 1 volt at 150 mA
Output Protection Circuitry Protected against false pulse on power-up and continuous overload or short-circuit of outputs
Output Response Time Sensors will respond to either a “light” or a “dark” signal of 1 millisecond or longer duration, 500 Hz max.
0.3 millisecond response modification is available. See note below†.
NOTE: 100 millisecond delay on power-up: outputs do not conduct during this time.
Repeatability Opposed: 0.14 milliseconds; Non-Polarized and Polarized Retroreflective, Diffuse, Convergent, Glass and
Plastic Fiber Optic: 0.3 milliseconds. Response time and repeatability specifications are independent of signal strength.
Adjustments LIGHT/DARK OPERATE select switch, and 15-turn slotted brass screw GAIN (sensitivity) adjustment potentiometer
(clutched at both ends of travel). Both controls are located on rear panel of sensor and protected by a gasketed,
clear acrylic cover.
Indicators Alignment Indicating Device system (AID) lights a rear-panel mounted red LED indicator whenever the sensor sees
a “light” condition, with a superimposed pulse rate proportional to the light signal strength (the stronger the signal,
the faster the pulse rate).
Construction Reinforced thermoplastic polyester housing, totally encapsulated, o-ring sealing, acrylic lenses, and stainless steel screws.
Environmental Rating Meets NEMA standards 1, 2, 3, 3S, 4, 4X, 6, 12, and 13; IEC IP67
Connections PVC-jacketed 4-conductor 2 m or 9 m cables, or 4-pin Euro-style quick-disconnect (QD) fitting are available. QD
cables are ordered separately. See page 380.

Environmental Rating Meets NEMA standards 1, 2, 3, 3S, 4, 4X, 6, 12, and 13; IEC IP67
Connections PVC-jacketed 2-conductor 2 m or 9 m cables, or 3-pin micro-style quick-disconnect (QD) fitting are available. QD
cables are ordered separately. See page 386.
Operating Conditions Temperature: -20° to +70° C Relative humidity: 90% at 50° C (non-condensing)
Application Notes i) Overload conditions can destroy ac MINI-BEAM sensors. Directly wiring sensor without load series across hot
and neutral will damage sensor (except emitter models).
ii) Low voltage use requires careful analysis of the load to determine if the leakage current or on-state voltage of
the sensor will interfere with proper operation of the load.
iii) The false-pulse protection feature may cause momentary drop-out of the load when the sensor is wired in
series or parallel with mechanical switch contacts.

** For 9 m cable, add suffix W/30 to the 2 m model number (example, SME312D W/30). A model with a QD requires a mating cable (see page 382).
*** NOTE: For clear object detection, sensing range varies, according to the efficiency and reflective area of the retroreflector(s) used. For these low-contrast
applications, the model BRT-2X2 reflector is recommended and is included with each SME312LPC(QD) sensor.
• For applications with high vibration, the model BRT-51x51BM, with its micro-prism geometry, is recommended.
• For long-range applications, the BRT-77X77C reflector provides a range up to 2 m.
• SME312LPC(QD) are for use with corner cube type reflectors only; reflective tape is not recommended. See page 391 for more information.
† NOTE: Retroreflective range is specified using one model BRT-3 retroreflector, unless otherwise noted. Actual sensing range may differ, depending on the efficiency
and reflective area of the retroreflector used. See Accessories section for more information.

Response time and repeatability specifications are independent of signal strength.
Adjustments SENSITIVITY control (single-turn, o-ring sealed potentiometer)
Indicators Sensors except opposed mode emitters have two LEDs:
Green ON steady: dc power ON
Green flashing: output overload
Yellow ON steady: Light Operate (LO), output is energized
Yellow flashing: marginal excess gain (1 - 1.5x), LO output is energized
Emitters have green power “ON” indicator
Construction Yellow and black ABS housing, with acrylic lenses, completely sealed. Stainless steel mounting bracket and M3
mounting hardware are supplied
Environmental Rating Meets NEMA standards 1, 2, 3, 3S, 4, 4X, 6, 12, and 13; IEC IP67. Housing materials rated UL 94 V-0
Connections PVC-jacketed 4-conductor 2 m or 9 m cables, or 4-pin Pico-style 50 mm threaded quick-disconnect (QD) fitting are
avail able. Mating QD cables are ordered separately. See page 378.
Operating Conditions Temperature: -20° to +55° C Relative humidity: 90% at 50° C (non-condensing)
Application Notes To avoid damage to the sensor caused by static discharge (ESD), use the plastic screwdriver supplied with each
sensor (included in the hardware packet) to adjust the SENSITIVITY control. Otherwise, use a screwdriver with an
insulated handle.
