Omron E3T-FD14 5M Ultracompact Photoelectric Sensor
Omron E3T-FD14 5M is an ultracompact diffuse-reflective photoelectric sensor designed for short-range object sensing from 5 to 30 mm. A red LED provides the optical source, and the built-in amplifier processes light returned from the target. Its PNP output transfers the switching state to compatible PLC inputs and control circuitry, while Dark-ON operation defines the specified output behavior. The sensor operates from 12 to 24 VDC, consumes up to 20 mA, and uses a 5 m pre-wired cable for extended machine wiring. Response time is specified at 1 ms max. Within the E3T Series, the E3T-FD14 5M provides the long-cable Dark-ON configuration. Related PNP short-range sensors are available across Omron Sensing Products.

The Omron E3T-FD14 5M Photoelectric Sensor uses diffuse-reflective sensing from 5 to 30 mm in an ultracompact rectangular body. Its red LED directs light toward the target, while the built-in amplifier processes the returned optical signal. A PNP output transfers the switching state to compatible industrial control circuitry, and Dark-ON operation provides the specified output logic. The sensor operates from 12 to 24 VDC with current consumption of up to 20 mA. Operate or reset time is specified at 1 ms max. A 5 m pre-wired cable provides extended connection length between the sensing point and control equipment. Its thin format supports mounting in compact machine sections where available installation area is restricted.
For an Omron PNP diffuse reflective photoelectric sensor requiring Dark-ON operation and extended wiring, the corresponding model is the E3T-FD14 5M. Polybutylene terephthalate is specified for the housing, while denatured polyarylate is used for the optical section. The enclosure is rated IP67 and approximate weight is 20 g. This configuration also suits searches for an Omron 5 m cable PNP sensor and Omron 30 mm Dark ON sensor. Its 1 ms response supports short-range presence and positioning tasks in compact equipment. For the related Light-ON PNP version using the same 5 m cable and 5 to 30 mm sensing range, see E3T-FD13 5M.
