Omron E3Z-B82 0.5M Photoelectric Sensor
Omron E3Z-B82 0.5M is a retro-reflective photoelectric sensor without the MSR function, specified for clear plastic bottle sensing from 500 mm to 2 m. Its 660 nm red LED provides the optical source, while the PNP output transfers the switching state to compatible industrial control equipment. Selectable Light-ON and Dark-ON operation supports different switching requirements. The sensor operates from 12 to 24 VDC and includes a 0.5 m pre-wired cable for short wiring runs. Current consumption is specified at 30 mA maximum, while response time is 1 ms maximum. Compared with the shorter-range B81 variant, this model provides the longer stated sensing range. Within the E3Z Series, the E3Z-B82 0.5M provides the short-cable version. Related clear plastic bottle sensors are available across Omron Industrial Sensor Products.

The Omron E3Z-B82 0.5M Photoelectric Sensor uses retro-reflective sensing without the MSR function for clear plastic bottle sensing from 500 mm to 2 m. A 660 nm red LED establishes the optical path between the sensor and reflector, while the PNP output transfers the switching state to compatible machine-control equipment. Selectable Light-ON and Dark-ON operation supports different control requirements. The sensor operates from 12 to 24 VDC and includes a 0.5 m pre-wired cable. Maximum current consumption is specified at 30 mA, while response time is 1 ms maximum. Its square construction uses PBT and denatured polyarylate materials, and IP67 enclosure protection is stated in the supplied information.
For an Omron clear plastic bottle sensor requiring PNP output and a 500 mm to 2 m sensing range, the relevant model is the E3Z-B82. The short 0.5 m cable suits installations where the sensor is mounted close to the control connection point. Its configuration also matches searches for an Omron long-range transparent object sensor and Omron PNP retro-reflective sensor. For another E3Z-B82 version supplied with a standard M8 connector, see the E3Z-B82 2M. Both supplied versions operate from 12 to 24 VDC, use a 660 nm red LED, provide selectable Light-ON or Dark-ON switching, and are listed with the same 500 mm to 2 m working range.
