Omron E3T-FT23 2M Photoelectric Sensor
Omron E3T-FT23 2M is an ultrathin through-beam photoelectric sensor with a flat-beam arrangement for object sensing across 300 mm. Its red LED establishes the optical path between the emitter and receiver, while the PNP output transfers the switching state to compatible PLC inputs and machine-control circuits. Light-ON operation is specified, and response time is 1 ms max. The sensor operates from 12 to 24 VDC and includes a 2 m pre-wired cable for direct electrical connection. Within the E3T Series, the E3T-FT23 2M provides the PNP Light-ON option. Related flat-beam photoelectric sensors can be explored across Omron Sensor Products.

The Omron E3T-FT23 2M Photoelectric Sensor uses flat-beam through-beam sensing across a 300 mm distance in an ultrathin rectangular body. The sensing set uses the E3T-FT23-L emitter and E3T-FT23-D receiver. A red LED creates the optical path between both sides, while the PNP output transfers the switching state from the receiver to compatible PLC inputs and control circuitry. Light-ON operation is specified. The sensor operates from 12 to 24 VDC, with total current consumption of 30 mA max., divided between 10 mA max. for the emitter and 20 mA max. for the receiver. Operate or reset time is 1 ms max., and a 2 m pre-wired cable provides the electrical connection.
For an Omron PNP through beam photoelectric sensor requiring flat-beam sensing across 300 mm, the corresponding model is the E3T-FT23. Polybutylene terephthalate is listed for the housing, while denatured polyarylate is used for the optical section. IP67 protection is specified and approximate weight is 40 g. Its specification also matches searches for an Omron flat beam sensor and Omron 300 mm PNP sensor. The flat-beam arrangement supports stable sensing of small parts where a narrow optical path is useful. For the related Dark-ON PNP version with the same sensing distance, see E3T-FT24 2M.
