Omron E3Z-R86 Photoelectric Sensor
Omron E3Z-R86 is a retro-reflective photoelectric sensor with an M.S.R. function and a specified sensing range from 100 mm to 3 m. Its 660 nm red LED establishes the optical path toward the reflector, while the PNP output transfers the switching state to compatible machine-control circuitry. Selectable Light-ON and Dark-ON operation supports different switching requirements. The sensor operates from 12 to 24 VDC and uses an M8 connector for electrical integration. Current consumption is specified at 30 mA maximum, while operate or reset time is 1 ms maximum. A one-turn adjuster supports sensing setup within the stated range. Within the E3Z Series, the E3Z-R86 provides connector wiring within the PNP retro-reflective sensor range across Omron Sensing Range.

The Omron E3Z-R86 Photoelectric Sensor uses retro-reflective sensing with an M.S.R. function across a specified range from 100 mm to 3 m. A 660 nm red LED establishes the optical path toward the reflector, while the PNP output communicates the switching state to compatible industrial control inputs. The sensor operates from 12 to 24 VDC and consumes up to 30 mA. Light-ON or Dark-ON operation can be selected according to the required output logic, while operate or reset time is specified at 1 ms maximum. A one-turn adjuster supports sensing setup, and an M8 connector provides removable electrical wiring. Ambient-light limits are specified at 3,000 lx for incandescent illumination and 10,000 lx for sunlight. Reversed supply polarity, output short-circuit, mutual-interference, and reversed output-polarity protection are included.
For an Omron PNP retro-reflective sensor requiring an M.S.R. function and M8 connector wiring, the relevant model is the E3Z-R86. Operating temperature is stated from -25 to 55°C under the supplied conditions, while storage extends from -40 to 70°C. Operating humidity covers 35% to 85%, and PBT is listed as the housing material. The connector interface provides an alternative to fixed pre-wired versions where machine-side cabling is intended to remain in place when the sensor is disconnected. Its specifications also suit requirements for an Omron 3 m PNP photoelectric sensor and Omron M8 retro-reflective sensor. For a related NPN version using M8 connector wiring and the same stated range, see E3Z-R66.
