Omron E3S Photoelectric Sensor, Retroreflective Detection Type, M12 Connector - E3SAR86


This is a medium-sized photoelectric sensor equipped with retro-reflective technology and a Modulated Scatter Reflective (M.S.R.) function. It operates effectively in both Light ON and Dark ON modes, providing reliable object detection within a sensing distance of 0.1 to 2 metres. This sensor is suitable for various industrial applications.

Features & Benefits


• Utilises advanced retro-reflective technology with M.S.R., ensuring accurate object detection
• Covers a range of 0.1 to 2 metres when using the E39-R1
• Employs a red LED (660 nm) for reliable performance
• Features a PNP open collector output with a maximum voltage of 30 VDC and a maximum current of 100 mA
• Operate or reset time is a swift 0.5 ms maximum
• Functions reliably between -25°C and 55°C (with no freezing or condensation)

Applications


• Detecting packages, objects, or jams on conveyor belts
• Monitoring the presence of items in bins, hoppers, or chutes
• Verifying component placement and alignment
• Ensuring proper packaging and label placement
• General-purpose object detection in manufacturing processes
