Omron E3S-CL1 2M Photoelectric Sensor
Omron E3S-CL1 2M is a distance-settable photoelectric sensor designed for object sensing from 5 to 200 mm. Its 660 nm red LED provides the optical source, while the distance-setting arrangement allows the sensing position to be adjusted for the required target location. The sensor operates from 10 to 30 VDC and supports selectable NPN or PNP output for compatible control systems. Light-ON or Dark-ON operation can also be selected, while response time is specified at 1 ms. A 2 m pre-wired cable provides the electrical connection. Within the E3S Series, the E3S-CL1 2M provides the 200 mm distance-setting configuration. Explore distance-settable photoelectric sensors across Omron Sensor Products.

The Omron E3S-CL1 2M Photoelectric Sensor provides distance-settable sensing across a range of 5 to 200 mm using a 200 × 200 mm white-paper reference target at the 200 mm setting distance. Its 660 nm red LED supplies the optical source, while selectable NPN or PNP output supports different PLC and machine-control interfaces. The sensor operates from 10 to 30 VDC and includes a 2 m pre-wired cable. Load current is rated up to 100 mA with load supply voltage up to 30 VDC. Light-ON or Dark-ON operation can be selected according to the required switching logic. Current consumption is specified at 35 mA maximum, while operate or reset time is 1 ms maximum.
For an Omron distance settable photoelectric sensor requiring 5 to 200 mm sensing and selectable NPN/PNP output, the relevant model is the E3S-CL1. Ambient-light resistance reaches 5,000 lx under incandescent light and 10,000 lx under sunlight. Operating temperature extends from -25 to 55°C, while storage ranges from -40 to 70°C. Power-supply reverse polarity, output short-circuit, and mutual-interference prevention are listed. Zinc die-cast, PES, methacrylic resin, and SUS304 are among the specified materials. Its configuration also suits searches for an Omron 200 mm distance sensor and Omron NPN PNP sensor. For the E3S distance-setting version covering a wider 5 to 500 mm range, see E3S-CL2 2M.
