The Omron E3FA-LP11 2M Photoelectric Sensor is a background suppression type sensor featuring a 100 mm sensing distance, PNP open collector output, and 10 to 30 VDC power supply. It uses a red LED light source and is housed in a plastic M18 cylindrical body for easy mounting. Belonging to the Omron E3FA Series, this sensor is designed for reliable object detection in industrial automation systems where precise distance control and background rejection are critical.
Widely used in conveyor automation, packaging systems, and material handling equipment, this model provides stable detection of varying object colors and surface textures. It maintains consistent output even under fluctuating lighting conditions. Its IP67 and IP69K protection ratings ensure resistance against dust and water, allowing the sensor to perform reliably in harsh industrial environments such as food, logistics, and assembly lines.
The Omron E3FA-LP11 2M Photoelectric Sensor serves as the PNP output version within the background suppression range. For users requiring an NPN output variant with the same sensing capability, the Omron E3FA-LN11 2M Photoelectric Sensor provides identical specifications but a different transistor output type. The Omron E3FA-LP21 Photoelectric Sensor offers the same PNP operation with an M12 connector instead of a pre-wired cable for quick disconnection in modular systems. Alternatively, the Omron E3FA-LN21 Photoelectric Sensor combines an NPN output and M12 connector configuration for flexible integration. The Omron E3FA-LP11 2M ensures dependable performance for automation tasks requiring fixed sensitivity and short-range detection precision.
The Omron E3FA-LP11 2M Photoelectric Sensor reinforces Omronβs reputation for reliable sensing products suited to industrial automation in India. With its fixed background suppression function, 0.5 ms response time, and wide operating temperature range from -25Β°C to 55Β°C, it supports stable and accurate object detection. Its sturdy ABS housing and PMMA lens construction provide long operational life and minimal maintenance needs, making it a trusted choice for engineers seeking durability and precision in automated manufacturing setups.
