The Omron E3ZM-R81 2M is a reliable retroreflective photoelectric sensor engineered with mutual interference suppression (MSR) to deliver precise long-range object detection. With a sensing distance of up to 4 meters for opaque targets as small as 75 mm, it uses a stable infrared LED (870 nm) as the light source. Operating on 10 to 30 VDC and configured with a PNP output, it includes a pre-wired 2-meter cable for straightforward field wiring and rapid installation.
The sensor offers quick 1 ms response time, Light-ON/Dark-ON switch selection, and a one-turn sensitivity adjuster to simplify setup. Visual indicators for operation and signal stability enable clear diagnostics during use. With advanced protection circuitsβsuch as reversed polarity, output short-circuit, and reversed output polarity protectionβit ensures reliable operation in demanding factory automation systems. This makes it ideal for conveyor control, packaging machinery, and heavy-duty object detection tasks.
Built with a rugged SUS316 stainless steel housing and reinforced with materials like PEEK, PES, methacrylic resin, and fluoro rubber, the E3ZM-R81 2M is IP67 and IP69K rated for protection against water, dust, and high-pressure cleaning. It withstands shock, vibration, and temperature extremes, making it a dependable solution for harsh industrial environments.
