The Omron E3Z-T81 5M Photoelectric Sensor uses a through-beam configuration with a high-efficiency Infrared LED (870 nm) as its light source. It can detect opaque targets as small as 12 mm over a 15-meter range, making it highly effective in conveyor tracking, object detection, and part presence verification in automated processes. Its compact and rugged build ensures reliable performance even in space-constrained machine environments.
Powered by a 12 to 24 VDC supply, this model features a PNP open collector output and comes with a pre-wired 5-meter cable for flexible mounting. Users can toggle between Light-ON and Dark-ON modes, and fine-tune performance using a 1-turn sensitivity adjuster. The unit also includes visual indicators: an orange LED for operation and green for stability. With a 1 ms response time, the sensor is suitable for real-time feedback applications in high-speed lines.
With an IP67-rated housing made from durable PBT and modified polyarylate resin, the E3Z-T81 5M is built to withstand industrial conditions, including exposure to vibration, shock, and varying temperatures. It includes robust safety mechanisms such as reverse polarity protection, short-circuit protection, and reversed output polarity protection, making it a dependable choice for OEMs and plant engineers.
