Omron E3Z-LL61 2M Photoelectric Sensor
Omron E3Z-LL61 2M is a distance-settable photoelectric sensor using background suppression across a specified 20 to 40 mm sensing range. Its 655 nm red laser creates a defined optical point, while the BGS principle helps separate the intended target from surfaces positioned beyond the selected sensing area. The NPN open-collector output communicates the switching state to compatible machine-control circuitry, while 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, response time at 1 ms maximum, and a five-turn endless adjuster supports precise setting. Within the E3Z Series, the E3Z-LL61 2M provides short-range laser sensing within the background suppression sensor range across Omron Automation Products.

The Omron E3Z-LL61 2M Photoelectric Sensor uses distance-settable sensing with background suppression across a specified 20 to 40 mm range. Its 655 nm red laser provides a defined optical point, while the BGS principle helps separate the intended target from surfaces located beyond the selected sensing position. The NPN open-collector output supports a load supply voltage up to 26.4 VDC and a load current up to 100 mA. Light-ON or Dark-ON operation can be selected according to the required control 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, response time at 1 ms maximum, and a five-turn endless adjuster supports fine setting.
For an Omron background-suppression laser sensor requiring NPN output and a short 20 to 40 mm sensing range, the relevant model is the E3Z-LL61. Ambient-light resistance reaches 3,000 lx under incandescent light and 10,000 lx under sunlight. Operating temperature extends from -10 to 55°C, while storage covers -25 to 70°C without icing or condensation. Reverse supply polarity, output short-circuit, mutual-interference, and reversed-output polarity protection are included. PBT and modified polyarylate resin are listed as materials. The adjustable sensing point supports applications where the target must be separated from a nearby background. Its specification also suits searches for an Omron NPN laser sensor and Omron BGS photoelectric sensor. For the PNP version with the same supplied 20 to 40 mm sensing range and 2 m cable, see the E3Z-LL81 2M.
