The Omron E3Z-T61K 2M is engineered with a through-beam configuration, delivering reliable detection up to 15 meters for opaque objects as small as 12 mm. This sensor uses a robust infrared LED (870 nm) as its light source and supports a stable 12 to 24 VDC power input with polarity protection. Featuring an NPN output configuration and a pre-wired 2-meter cable, it is easy to deploy in compact industrial systems that demand long-range and fast-response sensing.
With a fast 1 ms response time, selectable Light-ON/Dark-ON operation, and advanced protection circuitsβincluding reverse polarity, output short-circuit, and reversed output polarity protectionβthe E3Z-T61K 2M ensures consistent performance under tough operating conditions. Its high resistance to vibration and shock, wide operating temperature range (β25 to 55Β°C), and IP67-rated housing make it suitable for harsh environments. The sensor is built from PBT and modified polyarylate, offering high durability against moisture, dust, and oil exposure in factory floors.
Trusted by engineers across manufacturing lines, this Photoelectric Sensor helps reduce downtime, improve safety, and streamline sensing across various machines.
