Omron E3Z-D62 0.5M Photoelectric Sensor
Omron E3Z-D62 0.5M is a diffuse-reflective photoelectric sensor designed for direct object sensing across a specified 100 mm distance. Its 870 nm infrared LED directs light toward the target, allowing the returned optical signal to establish the switching state without a separate reflector. The NPN output transfers this state to compatible industrial control circuitry, while selectable Light-ON and Dark-ON operation supports different machine logic. 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. Within the E3Z Series, the E3Z-D62 0.5M provides a short-cable configuration for compact diffuse photoelectric sensors from Omron Automation Sensors.

The Omron E3Z-D62 0.5M Photoelectric Sensor uses diffuse-reflective sensing across a specified 100 mm working distance. An 870 nm infrared LED provides the optical source, while the sensor evaluates light returned directly from the target to establish the switching state. Its NPN output communicates with compatible industrial control circuitry, while selectable Light-ON and Dark-ON operation supports different machine requirements. The sensor operates from 12 to 24 VDC and includes a 0.5 m pre-wired cable for short connection runs. Current consumption is specified at 30 mA maximum, while response time is 1 ms maximum. Its compact square construction uses PBT and denatured polyarylate materials and supports installation where wiring distance to the control interface is limited.
For an Omron diffuse-reflective sensor requiring NPN output and a short pre-wired cable, the corresponding model is the E3Z-D62. The stated 100 mm range supports direct target sensing without a separate reflector. The 12 to 24 VDC operating range allows integration with common DC control systems, while selectable switching logic provides flexibility for different machine sequences. The supplied specification states IP67 enclosure protection. This model also aligns with searches for an Omron 100 mm photoelectric sensor and Omron compact NPN diffuse sensor. The short cable configuration is useful where the sensor is mounted close to a junction point or control connection. For the E3Z-D62 version with a 2 m pre-wired cable and a supplied 1 m sensing range, see the E3Z-D62 2M.
