Omron EE-SX772P 2M Photomicrosensor
Omron EE-SX772P 2M is a T-shaped through-beam slot photomicrosensor that provides PNP switching across a fixed 5 mm sensing gap. A GaAs infrared LED operating at 940 nm forms the internal optical path and supports sensing of opaque targets as small as 2 × 0.8 mm. Dark-ON operation defines the switching response, while the sensor operates from 5 to 24 VDC. Current consumption is specified at 12 mA maximum. A red light indicator provides visual operating status, and a 2 m pre-wired cable supports electrical connection. Output short-circuit protection is included in the circuit. Within the EE Series, the EE-SX772P 2M provides PNP operation within the 5 mm slot sensor range from Omron sensing products.

The Omron EE-SX772P 2M Photomicrosensor uses a T-shaped body with a fixed 5 mm through-beam slot and a PNP output. A GaAs infrared LED operating at 940 nm forms the optical path across the slot and supports opaque targets as small as 2 × 0.8 mm. The sensor operates in Dark-ON mode from a 5 to 24 VDC supply and consumes 12 mA maximum. A red light indicator provides operating status, while the 2 m pre-wired cable supports direct integration into the associated control circuitry. Output short-circuit protection is included. The fixed slot establishes a consistent sensing point, while the T-shaped geometry provides a specific mounting arrangement for components that pass through the opening during machine movement.
The EE-SX772P uses a PBT case and operates from -25°C to 55°C, with storage specified from -30°C to 80°C. Operating humidity is listed from 5% to 85% without condensation. Mechanical resistance includes vibration from 10 to 2,000 Hz under the specified conditions and shock resistance of 500 m/s² along each axis. The enclosure is rated IP64. Its PNP output is the main electrical distinction from NPN T-shaped models while retaining the same 5 mm slot, 940 nm infrared source, Dark-ON switching, and 2 m pre-wired connection. For a closely related PNP T-shaped version whose red indicator is specified for the no-incident-light condition, see the Omron EE-SX772R 2M.
