The K50R series of radar sensors provides a robust, cost-efficient solution for both short- and long-range detection applications, particularly in challenging environments.
- Cost-efficient alternative to long-range ultrasonic sensors
- 40 x 30 degree models deliver more robust detection and measurement in limited space
- 80 x 60 degree models offer broader coverage than ultrasonics over a larger area
- 50 mm to 5 m measurement range and high excess gain provide accurate measurements and reliable sensing
- Superior and consistent operation in any environment
- Radar technology ignores effects of ambient weather or light conditions, including steam, dust, and particulates
- IP67 rating and -40 °C to 60 °C operating temperature allow use in wide range of environments, including outdoors
- Simple integration and streamlined troubleshooting
- Banner Measurement Sensor software simplifies device configuration
- K50R Pro has programmable LED indication for visually communicating detailed information
- Dual discrete and analog output options allow easy control system integration
- Base and flush mount housings satisfy different installation needs

Application Notes

Tank Level Measurement in a Car Wash
Banner’s K50R radar sensor is a reliable, cost-efficient, externally-mounted solution for precisely measuring levels of car wash chemicals in storage tanks.

Mobile Robot Collision Avoidance
Banner’s K50RB Pro Radar Sensor prevents mobile robots from colliding with objects positioned in any direction or at any height.

Bank Drive-Thru Automobile Detection
Banner Engineering's K50R short-range radar sensor can be used to detect vehicles at bank teller drive-thru windows. It is designed to operate in any outdoor weather conditions.

Detecting Parking Spot Availability
Banner Engineering's weather-resistant K50R short-range radar sensors can be placed above parking spaces in a large, multi-level parking structure to monitor parking availability and help drivers to find open parking spaces more easily.

Electric Vehicle Detection at Charging Stations
Banner Engineering’s K50R radar sensor offers an ideal solution for electric vehicle detection at recharge stations. When cars park at a charging station, the radar sensor immediately detects the vehicle’s presence. If separate monitoring indicates that the car is not plugged into the charge station, a signal is sent to a central location, alerting authorities to ticket or remove the vehicle if necessary.
