PACK Expo - INTRODUCING THE T18-2 FROM BANNER ENGINEERING: EXTREMELY DURABLE PHOTOELECTRIC SENSORS FOR WASHDOWN AND THERMAL SHOCK ENVIRONMENTS

The new T18-2 Series features an FDA-grade shatterproof plastic housing and is IP69K rated and ECOLAB™ certified to protect against water ingress and chemical washdown. Furthermore, the sensors smooth surface and minimal crevices ensure easy cleaning.

MINNEAPOLIS, MN, September 6, 2018 - Banner Engineering, a leading provider of technology for industrial automation, today announced the release of the T18-2 Series photoelectric sensors for reliable presence detection in harsh washdown and thermal shock environments.


The new T18-2 Series features an FDA-grade shatterproof plastic housing and is IP69K rated and ECOLAB™ certified to protect against water ingress and chemical washdown. Furthermore, the sensors smooth surface and minimal crevices ensure easy cleaning.

In addition, the T18-2 housing is fully epoxy encapsulated to eliminate internal air cavities that can lead to condensation inside sensors during temperature cycling. The all-plastic sensor also features ultrasonically-welded joints for a durable seal that can withstand thermal shock with greater reliability than comparable metal sensors. This ensures reliable operation in temperatures ranging from -40 to +70 °C.

Sensor setup and alignment are made simple thanks to a bright, visible red emitter (all models except infrared). The highly visible output and dual-function power and stability indicators make the sensors easy to use and troubleshoot.

The new T18-2 is ideal for harsh environments such as meat or dairy processing, food and beverage processing and packaging, and cold storage applications.

JCO Series: NVIDIA Jetson Rugged AI Edge Computers

JCO Series: NVIDIA Jetson Rugged AI Edge Computers

The JCO Series is a line of NVIDIA Jetson rugged AI edge computers. Unlike standard CPUs, the JCO series employs NVIDIA Jetson-Orin modules, introducing an ARM-based SOM (System-on-Module) architecture with CPU, GPU, and RAM on the same module. This integration brings about significant AI performance right to the edge, coupled with a rugged, fanless design suitable for enduring extreme environments. This series highlights low power consumption (7-60 watts) yet delivers high AI performance up to 275 TOPS, a feat difficult for typical x86 solutions to match. The integration of customizable EDGEBoost IO technology and out-of-band remote management features ensures advanced connectivity and maintenance capabilities, solidifying the JCO Series as an essential solution for mission-critical deployments such as AGV & AMRs, security & surveillance, industrial automation, and industrial IoT. With UL listed, E-Mark, FCC, and CE certifications, the JCO Series meets the highest industry standards for ultimate safety and reliability.
