Omron EE-SX671A Photomicrosensor
Omron EE-SX671A is an L-shaped through-beam photomicrosensor designed around a fixed 5 mm sensing slot. An infrared LED supplies the optical source between the integrated transmitting and receiving sections, keeping the sensing path defined within the compact body. The sensor operates from 5 to 24 VDC and provides an NPN output with selectable Light-ON or Dark-ON operation. Current consumption is specified at 12 mA, while a system connector provides the electrical interface. The integrated optical sections remove the need for separately mounted sensing heads around the slot. Its L-shaped geometry provides a different mounting orientation for compact machine mechanisms. The EE-SX671A supports the L-shaped photomicrosensor range across Omron Automation Sensors.

The Omron EE-SX671A Photomicrosensor uses an L-shaped body with a built-in through-beam optical arrangement across a fixed 5 mm slot. An infrared LED supplies the optical source, while the integrated sensing sections establish the sensing path inside the sensor body. The unit operates from 5 to 24 VDC and provides an NPN output with selectable Light-ON or Dark-ON operation. Current consumption is specified at 12 mA. Unlike the 4-pole connector used on several related EE-SX models, this version uses a system connector for electrical integration. The supplied data identifies the indicator condition as no incident light. Its L-shaped profile provides a compact mounting format while the fixed optical geometry maintains the 5 mm sensing gap without separately installed optical heads.
The EE-SX671A uses PBT as its stated housing material and carries an IP50 enclosure rating. The supplied row does not provide detailed operating temperature, vibration, shock, residual-voltage, or load-current values for this model, so those values are not added here. Its main distinctions are the L-shaped body, NPN output, selectable switching logic, 5 mm through-beam slot, infrared LED, and system connector. This makes it useful where the connection method needs to differ from the common 4-pole connector arrangement used on nearby EE-SX models. For a related L-shaped NPN version using a 4-pole connector and providing additional environmental specifications, refer to the Omron EE-SX671.
