Omron E3ZM-V86 Photoelectric Sensor
Omron E3ZM-V86 is a PNP diffuse-reflective mark sensor designed for sensing at a specified distance of 12 ±2 mm. Its white LED covers the 450 to 700 nm wavelength range, supplying optical light for distinguishing the target mark. The PNP output communicates the switching state to compatible machine-control inputs, while the operating response is established through the teaching sequence. The sensor operates from 10 to 30 VDC and uses an M8 4-pin connector for removable electrical integration. Power consumption is specified at 750 mW maximum, while operate or reset time is 50 μs maximum. Operation, stability, and teaching indicators support setup feedback. The E3ZM-V86 provides connector wiring within the PNP mark sensor range across Omron Industrial Sensor Products.

The Omron E3ZM-V86 Photoelectric Sensor uses diffuse-reflective mark sensing at a specified distance of 12 ±2 mm. Its white LED spans wavelengths from 450 to 700 nm, providing optical light for distinguishing the required mark. The PNP output supports load supply voltage up to 30 VDC and load current up to 100 mA, with residual voltage specified at 2 V maximum. The sensor operates from 10 to 30 VDC and consumes up to 750 mW. Its operating response is established through teaching, while operate or reset time is only 50 μs maximum. An M8 4-pin connector provides detachable electrical integration. Yellow operation, green stability, and red teaching indicators support adjustment and status checking without relying on a conventional fixed mode selector.
For an Omron PNP mark sensor requiring connector wiring instead of a permanently attached cable, the relevant model is the E3ZM-V86. Operating temperature is specified from -40 to 60°C, with storage extending from -40 to 70°C. Reversed supply polarity, load short-circuit, and reversed output-polarity protection are included. SUS316, PMMA, PES, fluoro rubber, and PVC are listed among the materials. The M8 connection differentiates this model from pre-wired V81 versions while retaining the same 12 ±2 mm sensing specification and 50 μs switching speed. For a related PNP mark sensor with a 2 m fixed cable, see E3ZM-V81 2M.
