The Banner T30R Radar Sensor is designed for reliable object detection in environments where traditional sensing technologies struggle—such as outdoor, dusty, wet, or foggy conditions. Using radar technology, the T30R can detect targets with high accuracy regardless of color, transparency, or surface reflectivity. It features a rugged housing, configurable detection zones, and excellent resistance to interference, making it ideal for industrial and mobile equipment applications. Available through Steiner Electric, the T30R delivers dependable performance in even the most demanding sensing environments.
BANNER T30R Series Features
- Rugged, weatherproof design: IP67-rated housing built to withstand rain, snow, fog, steam, sunlight, and extreme temperatures (-40 to 65°C)
- Reliable detection across materials: Accurately senses both high-dielectric (metal) and low-dielectric (wood, rock, organic) targets
- Flexible outputs and setup: Supports discrete, analog (0–10 V / 4–20 mA), IO-Link, and includes easy configuration via software or onboard controls
- Advanced radar performance: FMCW radar enables detection of both moving and stationary targets, with crosstalk immunity for close-range multi-sensor use
- Extended range and beam options: Detects from 150 mm to 15 m, with 15°x15° and 45°x45° beam patterns to suit precision or wide-area applications
Ideal for Outdoor Applications

Beam Pattern Considerations
Radar Sensors are available in narrow and wide beam patterns. Narrow beam patterns avoid false detection of objects outside of the region of interest and allow for a more precise measurement, while wide beam patterns provide coverage of larger areas and provide more robust detection of irregular surfaces and targets presented at steep angles.
Narrow Beam Considerations
- Drive-through
- Gantry crane
- Overhead crane
- Loading docks
Wide Beam Applications
- Mobile equipment collision avoidance
- Vehicle detection: train, car, boats
