Omron E3Z-D61 2M Photoelectric Sensor
Omron E3Z-D61 2M is a diffuse-reflective photoelectric sensor designed for direct object sensing across a 5 to 100 mm wide-view range. Its 870 nm infrared LED directs light toward the target, while the returned light is evaluated by the sensor without requiring a separate reflector. The NPN output transfers the switching state to compatible control circuitry, and Light-ON or Dark-ON operation can be selected according to the required logic. The sensor operates from 12 to 24 VDC and includes a 2 m pre-wired cable. Response time is specified at 1 ms maximum. Within the E3Z Series, the E3Z-D61 2M provides a wide-view NPN configuration for short-range diffuse-reflective sensing across Omron Sensors.

The Omron E3Z-D61 2M Photoelectric Sensor uses diffuse-reflective sensing across a 5 to 100 mm wide-view range. Its 870 nm infrared LED sends light toward the target, while the returned optical signal is evaluated directly by the sensor without requiring a separate reflector. The NPN output communicates the switching state to compatible control circuitry, and Light-ON or Dark-ON operation can be selected according to the required logic. The sensor operates from 12 to 24 VDC and includes a 2 m pre-wired cable. Current consumption is specified at 30 mA maximum, while operate or reset time is 1 ms maximum. A one-turn adjuster supports sensitivity setting, and ambient-light resistance reaches 3,000 lx under incandescent light and 10,000 lx under sunlight.
For an Omron diffuse-reflective sensor requiring NPN output and a short 5 to 100 mm working range, the applicable model is the E3Z-D61. Operating temperature extends from -25 to 55°C, while storage covers -40 to 70°C without icing or condensation. Insulation resistance is specified at 20 MΩ minimum at 500 VDC, and dielectric strength is 1,000 VAC for one minute. Reverse supply polarity, output short-circuit, mutual-interference, and reversed-output polarity protection are listed. The PBT body supports a compact industrial installation, while the wide-view optical arrangement is suitable where target position may vary within the stated short range. Its specification also matches searches for an Omron 100 mm diffuse sensor and Omron NPN infrared photoelectric sensor. For the same E3Z-D61 configuration with a longer pre-wired cable, see the E3Z-D61 5M.
