Omron is a trusted name in industrial sensing and automation solutions, known for its precision engineering and rugged product design. With decades of experience in optoelectronics, Omron's sensors are widely used in robotics, material handling, machine tooling, and electronics manufacturing. Their photomicrosensor series stands out for compact form factors, fast response times, and reliable performance in demanding environments.
The Omron EE-SX676P is a compact slot type photomicrosensor with a built-in 5 mm slot width. It utilizes an infrared LED (940 nm) and a throughbeam configuration to detect small object interruptions with high accuracy. The sensor supports Dark-ON/Light-ON modes, offers PNP output, and operates from a wide voltage range of 5 to 24 VDC. With a current consumption of just 12 mA and a 4-pole connector interface, it integrates seamlessly into space-constrained control panels. The EE-SX676P is housed in durable PBT material and carries an IP50 rating, providing protection against dust ingress while withstanding industrial vibration and shock conditions.
Engineers commonly use the EE-SX676P in applications like position detection, edge sensing on moving parts, and rotation counting in encoder assemblies. Its compact F-shaped housing allows for installation in tight mechanical spaces, while the stable throughbeam signal minimizes false triggers. This sensor is particularly effective in pick-and-place systems, small part feeders, and safety mechanisms that require fast, accurate slot detection.
