E3FA Compact Photoelectric Sensors


The E3FA range of compact photoelectric sensors from Omron are simple and quick to mount and easy to set up due to the large adjuster and high power LED indicator making alignment easier. The status LED indicators of these photoelectric sensors can also be seen easily, from long distances and wide angles. The E3FA series sensors are typically installed in industrial plants such as food and beverage, textiles, food and logistics and are also designed especially for non stop detection for areas where machines never stop.

OMRON Photoelectric Sensor, LED Beam, PNP Output Type - E3F Series - E3FA-RP21


Round off your conveyor setup with this barrel sensor from OMRON. It detects the presence of objects using the photoelectric method, sensing items at distances between 100mm and 4m so you can customise it to work with your belt width. This retroreflective device combines an emitter and receiver, saving installation time and space. You can use reflector tape (215-5391) to bounce the beam back, keeping the system compact. As the sensor is suitable for flush mounting on the side of the conveyor, you can streamline your automation further.

Features & Benefits


• IP69K rating means it's dust-tight and resistant to hot, high-pressure water jets
• MSR function and polarised LED for reliably detecting objects with mirror-like surfaces
• Dark-on and light-on functions for customising your detection and signalling processes
• Visible red beam makes it a doddle to line up your target
• Strong ABS housing is resistant to wear and impact

Applications


• Assembly lines
• Packaging equipment
• Food processing
• Warehouses

How do I adjust the settings on this photoelectric sensor?


You can manually adjust the settings via a switch on the sensor's housing. For convenience, there are grooves on the switch for you to turn it with a slotted or Phillips screwdriver.
