Omron E3ZM-D87 Photoelectric Sensor
Omron E3ZM-D87 is a connector-type diffuse-reflective photoelectric sensor with a stated sensing distance of 1 m. An infrared LED illuminates the target, allowing reflected light to establish the output condition without a separate reflector or receiving unit. Its PNP output communicates the switching state to compatible industrial control circuitry, and Light-ON or Dark-ON operation supports different machine sequences. Operating power is 10 to 30 VDC, current consumption is specified at 25 mA maximum, and an M8 connector provides removable electrical connection. Response time is stated at 1 ms maximum. Its SUS316L body distinguishes the supplied configuration from fixed-cable alternatives. The E3ZM-D87 provides connector integration within the 1 m diffuse-reflective sensor range across Omron Sensor Products.

The Omron E3ZM-D87 Photoelectric Sensor uses diffuse-reflective sensing over a specified 1 m distance and provides a PNP switching output. An infrared LED directs light at the target surface, while the light returning to the sensor establishes the output state. The unit operates from 10 to 30 VDC and draws up to 25 mA. An M8 connector replaces the fixed cable arrangement found on several other E3ZM diffuse models, providing a detachable electrical interface at the sensing location. Light-ON or Dark-ON operation is available, while response time is specified at 1 ms maximum. SUS316L is listed for the sensor body and methacrylate resin for the optical material. The supplied configuration therefore differs from fixed-cable versions mainly through its connector arrangement and stated body format.
For an Omron PNP diffuse sensor where machine-side wiring should remain separate from the sensing unit, the relevant model is the E3ZM-D87. Its 1 m stated sensing span matches the optical distance listed for the D82 fixed-cable version, but the M8 interface provides a different installation approach. Operating power remains within the 10 to 30 VDC range, and the 1 ms response supports quick output changes as reflected light varies. Current consumption is limited to 25 mA maximum according to the supplied data. This configuration also suits requirements for an Omron M8 photoelectric sensor and Omron 1 m PNP diffuse sensor. For a related fixed-cable PNP version with 5 m wiring, see E3ZM-D82 5M.
