Omron E3T-FD11M 5M Ultracompact Photoelectric Sensor
Omron E3T-FD11M 5M is an ultrathin rectangular diffuse-reflective photoelectric sensor designed for short-distance object sensing from 5 to 30 mm. Its red LED provides the optical source, while the built-in amplifier processes returned light from the target. An NPN output transfers the switching state to compatible PLC inputs and industrial control circuits, and Light-ON operation defines the specified output behavior. The sensor operates from 12 to 24 VDC, consumes up to 20 mA, and provides a 1 ms max. response time. Its 5 m pre-wired cable provides extended wiring length for machine installation. Within the E3T Series, the E3T-FD11M 5M provides the long-cable M-type version. Related compact diffuse photoelectric sensors are available across Omron Automation Products.

The Omron E3T-FD11M 5M Photoelectric Sensor uses diffuse-reflective sensing from 5 to 30 mm in an ultrathin rectangular M-type format. Its red LED supplies the optical light, while the built-in amplifier processes light returned from the target. The NPN output communicates the switching state to compatible control circuitry, and Light-ON operation provides the specified output behavior. The sensor operates from 12 to 24 VDC and consumes up to 20 mA. Operate or reset time is specified at 1 ms max. A 5 m pre-wired cable provides additional connection length between the sensor and control equipment. Its small body is suited to machine areas where mounting depth and available surface area are limited.
For an Omron compact diffuse reflective photoelectric sensor requiring a 5 m cable and short 5 to 30 mm sensing, the corresponding model is the E3T-FD11M 5M. The listed housing material is polybutylene terephthalate, with denatured polyarylate used for the optical section. IP67 protection is specified, and approximate sensor weight is 20 g. Its specification also matches searches for an Omron long cable diffuse sensor and Omron ultrathin NPN photoelectric sensor. The 1 ms response supports quick switching for small-part presence and positioning tasks. For the same Light-ON M-type configuration with a shorter 2 m cable, see E3T-FD11M 2M.
