Banner Engineering R-GAGE QT5R-AF2W Radar Sensor


Banner Engineering’s QT50R-AF2W radar sensor was created to provide a solution to port crane anti-collision applications. For the past five years, Banner has worked with large OEM crane manufacturers around the world to design a sensor that meets their challenging needs. Banner is now presenting this advanced technology as a standard product offering. The QT50R-AF2W sensor is a lower cost alternative to the Q120RA model, providing approximately half the sensitivity and range.
