Omron EE-SPY402 Photomicrosensor
Omron EE-SPY402 is a vertical reflective photomicrosensor designed for target sensing across a specified 5 mm distance. Its modulated optical arrangement evaluates returned light from the target, while the vertical structure establishes the required sensing direction in compact equipment. The sensor operates from 5 to 24 VDC and provides an NPN output with Light-ON switching. Average current consumption is specified at 15 mA maximum and peak consumption at 50 mA maximum. The output supports up to 80 mA load current, and a special connector provides removable electrical integration. A red indicator gives visual operating feedback. The EE-SPY402 provides vertical sensing within the 5 mm reflective sensor range from Omron Industrial Sensing Products.

The Omron EE-SPY402 Photomicrosensor uses vertical reflective sensing across a specified distance of 5 mm. Light is directed toward the target and the returned optical signal is evaluated from the same sensing side, allowing nearby objects to be monitored without an opposing optical element. The sensor operates from 5 to 24 VDC and provides an NPN output with Light-ON operation. Average current consumption is specified at 15 mA max., while peak current reaches 50 mA. The output supports up to 80 mA load current, with residual voltage stated as 1.0 V max. at an 80 mA load and 0.4 V max. at 10 mA. A red light indicator provides visual operating status. The optical signal is modulated, while a special connector provides the electrical interface.
The EE-SPY402 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, with operating humidity from 5% to 85%. Mechanical specifications include vibration resistance from 10 to 55 Hz at 1.5 mm double amplitude for two hours in each X, Y, and Z direction and shock resistance of 500 m/s² three times in each direction. The enclosure is rated IP50. Its vertical sensing direction provides an alternative mounting arrangement to the horizontal EE-SPY401 while retaining the same stated 5 mm range, NPN output, and Light-ON switching. For that horizontal alternative, refer to the Omron EE-SPY401.
