Omron Through Beam Photoelectric Sensor, Flat Sensor

This photoelectric sensor is designed for precise detection in industrial applications. With a detection range of up to 500mm, this flat photoelectric sensor operates using a through beam detection method. It features a robust cable connection for electrical wiring, making it a versatile component in automated systems. Constructed from Durable PBT housing, this sensor operates effectively within a temperature range of -25°C to +55°C, and its IP67 rating ensures protection against dust and water ingress.

• Supports through beam detection for accurate sensing
• NPN output for easy integration into control systems
• Fast response time of 1ms enhances system performance
• Operates on a maximum DC voltage of 24V for efficiency
• Polarity-free red light source simplifies installation

• Used for object detection in automation lines
• Suitable for assembly processes requiring precise positioning
• Ideal for packaging machinery needing accurate detection
• Employed in conveyor systems to monitor product flow

The wide temperature range ensures the sensor functions effectively in various environmental conditions, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications without performance degradation.

An NPN output establishes a ground connection upon detection, simplifying the integration process with PLCs and other control mechanisms while reducing signal noise that could affect operation.

The IP67 rating confirms that the sensor is completely dust-tight and can withstand immersion in water up to 1 metre for 30 minutes, ensuring durability in challenging operational environments.

With a remarkably fast response time of just 1ms, the sensor facilitates Rapid detection and signalling, enabling efficient automation processes that require immediate feedback.

Through beam sensing is Ideal for applications where detecting the presence or absence of an object is critical, especially when high precision and speed are necessary in production lines.
