Omron EE-SPY302 Photomicrosensor
Omron EE-SPY302 is a vertical reflective photomicrosensor designed for target sensing across a specified 5 mm distance. Its optical arrangement directs a modulated signal toward the target and evaluates returned light from the same sensing side, while the vertical format defines the sensing direction. The sensor operates from 5 to 24 VDC and provides an NPN output with Dark-ON switching. Average current consumption is specified at 15 mA maximum, with peak consumption reaching 50 mA maximum. The output supports up to 80 mA load current, while a special connector provides electrical integration. A red indicator supplies visual status. The EE-SPY302 supports the vertical reflective sensor range across Omron Industrial Sensor Products.

The Omron EE-SPY302 Photomicrosensor uses a vertical reflective arrangement with a specified 5 mm sensing distance. Light is directed toward the target and the returned optical signal is evaluated from the same sensing side, allowing the sensor to monitor objects without an opposing sensing element. The unit operates from 5 to 24 VDC and provides an NPN output with Dark-ON switching. Average current consumption is specified at 15 mA max., while peak current reaches 50 mA. Maximum load current is 80 mA, and residual voltage is listed as 1.0 V max. at an 80 mA load and 0.4 V max. at a 10 mA load. The modulated optical signal supports stable reflective sensing, while a red light indicator provides visual operating status. A special connector provides the electrical interface.
The EE-SPY302 uses a polycarbonate case and is specified for operation from -10°C to 55°C without freezing or condensation. Storage temperature extends from -25°C to 65°C, and operating humidity is listed from 5% to 85%. Its stated mechanical resistance includes vibration from 10 to 55 Hz at 1.5 mm double amplitude for two hours in each X, Y, and Z direction, together with shock resistance of 500 m/s² three times along each axis. The enclosure is rated IP50. Its vertical orientation provides a mounting choice where the sensing direction needs to differ from a horizontal reflective layout while maintaining the same 5 mm range. For the related horizontal version with Dark-ON operation, refer to the Omron EE-SPY301.
