Omron E3Z-T62 2M Photoelectric Sensor
The Omron E3Z-T62 2M Photoelectric Sensor uses through-beam sensing for detecting objects across a distance of up to 30 m. Its E3Z-T62-L 2M emitter and E3Z-T62-D 2M receiver establish a separate optical transmitting and receiving arrangement using an infrared LED operating at 870 nm. Objects entering the sensing path are detected when they interrupt the infrared beam reaching the receiver. The NPN output communicates the resulting sensing state to compatible machine-control circuitry, while selectable Light-ON or Dark-ON operation supports different switching requirements. Operating from 12 to 24 VDC, the sensing units include 2 m pre-wired cables for electrical connection. Designed for extended NPN object detection, the E3Z-T62 sits within the E3Z Series and connects with the 30 m through-beam sensor range available from Omron detection products.

The Omron E3Z-T62 2M Photoelectric Sensor uses through-beam sensing across a specified distance of 30 m. The optical arrangement includes the E3Z-T62-L emitter and E3Z-T62-D receiver, with an 870 nm infrared LED establishing the beam between them. An opaque target of 12 mm diameter minimum is specified. The NPN output supports load supply voltage up to 26.4 VDC and load current up to 100 mA. The sensing units operate from 12 to 24 VDC and consume 35 mA maximum in total, with 15 mA maximum specified for the emitter and 20 mA maximum for the receiver. Light-ON or Dark-ON operation is selectable, while operate or reset time is specified at 2 ms maximum. A one-turn adjuster supports setup, and 2 m pre-wired cables provide fixed electrical connection.
For an Omron long-range through-beam sensor requiring NPN output and 30 m sensing, the relevant model is the E3Z-T62. Operating temperature is specified from -25 to 55°C under the supplied conditions, with storage extending from -40 to 70°C. Operation and stability indicators provide visual status, while the emitter includes a dedicated power indicator. Reversed power-supply polarity, output short-circuit, and reversed output-polarity protection are listed. PBT and modified polyarylate are specified among the materials. The 30 m range distinguishes this model from E3Z through-beam versions specified for 15 m. For a related 15 m NPN version with 2 m pre-wired cables, see E3Z-T61 2M.
