Omron E3T-FD11 5M Photoelectric Sensor
Omron E3T-FD11 5M is an ultrathin diffuse-reflective photoelectric sensor for object sensing across a short 5 to 30 mm range. Its red LED supplies the optical light, while the NPN output transfers the switching state to compatible control circuitry. Light-ON operation is specified, with an operate or reset time of 1 ms max. The sensor operates from 12 to 24 VDC and consumes up to 20 mA. A 5 m pre-wired cable provides additional wiring length where the control connection is farther from the sensing point. The rectangular body supports compact mounting. Within the E3T Series, the E3T-FD11 5M provides the extended-cable version. Related 5 to 30 mm photoelectric sensors are available across Omron Sensing Products.

The Omron E3T-FD11 5M Photoelectric Sensor uses diffuse-reflective sensing across a range of 5 to 30 mm for short-distance object sensing. Its red LED directs optical light toward the target, while returned light is processed by the built-in amplifier to provide the switching state. The NPN output supports compatible PLC inputs and control circuitry, and Light-ON operation defines the specified switching behavior. The sensor operates from 12 to 24 VDC and consumes up to 20 mA. Operate or reset time is specified at 1 ms max. A 5 m pre-wired cable provides additional wiring length between the sensing position and control equipment. Its ultrathin rectangular housing supports installation where available mounting space is limited.
For an Omron short range diffuse photoelectric sensor requiring NPN output and extended cable length, the corresponding model is the E3T-FD11 5M. Polybutylene terephthalate is listed for the housing and denatured polyarylate for the optical section, while IP67 protection is specified. Approximate weight is 20 g. This configuration also suits searches for an Omron 5 m cable photoelectric sensor and Omron 30 mm NPN sensor. Its 1 ms switching response supports small-object presence sensing and positioning in compact automation equipment. For a related 5 m cable model with the alternative operating logic and the same 5 to 30 mm sensing range, see E3T-FD12 5M.
