Omron E3AS-HL500LMT M3 Photoelectric Sensor
Omron E3AS-HL500LMT M3 is a PNP distance-settable photoelectric sensor with line-beam sensing from approximately 35 to 500 mm. The Class 1 red laser creates an elongated optical area, distinguishing this model from focused spot versions in the HL500 range. An M8 connector provides detachable electrical wiring, and the sensor operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Selectable response values of 1.5 ms, 10 ms, and 50 ms allow the output behaviour to be adjusted for the application. The E3AS-HL500LMT M3 represents the PNP connector-based line-beam model in the E3AS Series. Where extended line-beam sensing and removable wiring are required, PNP line beam sensors are available across the Omron Sensor Range.

The Omron E3AS-HL500LMT M3 Photoelectric Sensor uses line-beam Class 1 red laser sensing for adjustable target distances from approximately 35 to 500 mm. The sensor provides PNP output and operates from a 10 to 30 VDC Class 2 power source. An M8 connector provides detachable electrical connection for compact machine installation. Its distance-settable operation allows the sensing position to be adjusted within the specified HL500 range, while the line-shaped beam differs from the focused spot used by other models. Response time can be selected from 1.5 ms, 10 ms, or 50 ms according to machine requirements. Total output load current is specified up to 100 mA. Reverse power polarity, output short circuit, and output reverse polarity protection are included. A white OLED display and status indicators assist with configuration.
For users requiring PNP switching, M8 connection, line-beam optics, and adjustable sensing to 500 mm, the corresponding model is the E3AS-HL500LMT M3. Ambient operating temperature extends from -20 to 55°C, while storage is specified from -40 to 70°C in non-condensing conditions. Mechanical resistance includes vibration from 10 to 55 Hz and shock up to 500 m/s². SUS316L stainless steel is used for the enclosure, while the PMMA lens carries an antifouling coating. Environmental ratings include IP67, IP67G, and IP69K. Its specifications also match searches for an Omron PNP line beam sensor, Omron M8 laser sensor, and Omron 500 mm distance-settable sensor.
