Omron E3Z-LS86 Photoelectric Sensor
Omron E3Z-LS86 is a distance-settable photoelectric sensor using background suppression across a specified 20 to 200 mm range. Its 670 nm red LED provides the optical source, while the PNP output communicates the switching state to compatible machine-control circuitry. Selectable Light-ON and Dark-ON operation supports different control requirements. The sensor operates from 12 to 24 VDC and uses an M8 4-pin connector for electrical integration. Current consumption is specified at 30 mA maximum, while response time is 1 ms maximum. Operation and stability indicators provide visual status during setup and operation. Within the E3Z Series, the E3Z-LS86 provides connector wiring within the 200 mm PNP background suppression sensor range across Omron Automation Sensors.

The Omron E3Z-LS86 Photoelectric Sensor uses distance-settable background-suppression sensing across a specified 20 to 200 mm range. A 670 nm red LED provides the optical source, while the PNP output communicates the switching state to compatible industrial control circuitry. The sensor operates from 12 to 24 VDC and consumes up to 30 mA. Load supply voltage is specified up to 26.4 VDC, with load current up to 100 mA and residual voltage of 1 V maximum. Light-ON or Dark-ON operation can be selected, while operate or reset time is specified at 1 ms maximum. An M8 4-pin connector provides the electrical interface, and orange operation plus green stability indicators provide visual status during setup.
For an Omron PNP background suppression sensor requiring connector wiring and a 200 mm maximum range, the relevant model is the E3Z-LS86. Operating temperature extends from -25 to 55°C, with storage from -40 to 70°C. Ambient-light resistance reaches 3,000 lx for incandescent illumination and 10,000 lx for sunlight. Reversed power-supply polarity protection, output short-circuit protection, and mutual-interference prevention are included. PBT and modified polyarylate resin are listed among the supplied materials. Its specification supports requirements for an Omron 200 mm PNP sensor and Omron M8 photoelectric sensor. For a related PNP connector model using a shorter 2 to 80 mm BGS range, see E3Z-LS88.
