Omron EE-SX950-W 1M Photomicrosensor
Omron EE-SX950-W 1M is a standard through-beam slot photomicrosensor designed around a fixed 5 mm sensing gap with a standard 1 m pre-wired cable. Its NPN output supports both Light-ON and Dark-ON operation, giving the connected control circuit a choice of switching logic. The sensor operates from 5 to 24 VDC and consumes 15 mA. Maximum load current is specified at 50 mA, while a red light indicator provides visual operating status. The optical arrangement is non-modulated, and the standard cable distinguishes this version from the robot-cable EE-SX950-R. For standard-cable slot sensing, the EE-SX950-W 1M belongs to the through-beam photomicrosensor range across Omron Automation Sensors.

The Omron EE-SX950-W 1M Photomicrosensor uses a standard through-beam optical arrangement across a fixed 5 mm sensing gap. The NPN output supports both Light-ON and Dark-ON modes, allowing the output response to be selected according to the required control sequence. The sensor operates from 5 to 24 VDC and consumes 15 mA. Its output supports a maximum load current of 50 mA, with residual voltage specified at 0.7 V maximum at 50 mA and 0.4 V maximum at 5 mA. A red light indicator provides visual operating status. The optical signal is non-modulated. Electrical connection is provided through a standard 1 m pre-wired cable, distinguishing this configuration from the robot-cable EE-SX950-R.
The EE-SX950-W uses PBT for the case and cover together with polycarbonate emitter and receiver sections. Its operating temperature range is -25°C to 55°C, while storage extends from -30°C to 80°C. Vibration resistance is specified from 10 to 2,000 Hz under the listed test procedure, and shock resistance is 500 m/s² three times in each X, Y, and Z direction. The enclosure has an IP50 rating. This standard-cable version suits installations where repeated cable movement is not a primary requirement, while retaining the same 5 mm slot, NPN output, 15 mA consumption, and selectable Light-ON or Dark-ON modes. For the related 1 m robot-cable model, refer to the Omron EE-SX950-R 1M.
