Omron E3Z-LS61 0.5M Photoelectric Sensor
Omron E3Z-LS61 0.5M is a distance-setting photoelectric sensor designed for object sensing across a specified 20 to 200 mm range. Its 670 nm red LED provides the optical source, while the distance-setting arrangement allows the sensing position to be adjusted according to the required target location. The NPN output transfers the switching 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-LS61 0.5M provides a compact NPN option within the distance-setting sensor range across Omron Automation Products.

The Omron E3Z-LS61 0.5M Photoelectric Sensor uses distance-setting sensing across a specified 20 to 200 mm working range. Its 670 nm red LED provides the optical source, while the selected target position establishes the sensing condition. The NPN output communicates the switching state to compatible industrial 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 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. PBT and denatured polyarylate are listed as construction materials, supporting compact installation within machine equipment.
For an Omron distance-setting sensor requiring NPN output and a 20 to 200 mm working range, the relevant model is the E3Z-LS61. The adjustable sensing arrangement supports applications where object position needs to be established within a defined short working area. Selectable Light-ON or Dark-ON behavior supports different machine sequences, while the 12 to 24 VDC supply range suits common industrial controls. The supplied specification states IP67 enclosure protection. Its configuration also suits searches for an Omron 200 mm photoelectric sensor and Omron short-range NPN sensor. The 0.5 m cable is useful where machine wiring is positioned close to the sensing location. For the same 20 to 200 mm E3Z-LS61 configuration with a longer 5 m cable, see the E3Z-LS61 5M.
