Omron E3FA/E3FB Photoelectric Sensor
Omron E3FA/E3FB photoelectric sensors, dependable and easy to use sensor series.
Suitable for applications in all industries from food, beverage to brick manufacture and logistics. Omron E3FA sensors offer high reliability, enhanced EMC protection, high ambient light immunity and robust waterproof housing.
E3FA series has one of the best performances in the M18 sized sensors against price.
For more information about E3FA/E3FB sensors download the product datasheet here.
E3FA Main Features:
- Wide line-up with plastic/metal, straight and side view models
- Compact housing size for easy integration into machine design
- Visible high power LED in all models for excellent performance and easy alignment
- Intensive shielding for highest noise immunity (EMC)
- High immunity against disturbances from ambient light
- Best performing photo sensor in M18 format
- Wide line up for all standard and many special applications
- High visible red LED in all models
- Most easy installation and operation
With compact housing, ideal for where space is limited the E3FA uses a bright red LED light source, clearly visible over long distances. Intuitive setup with instant visual confirmation via LED indicator with a wide viewing angle.
Standard series of the Omron E3FA photoelectric sensor include through beam version up to 20m. Retro-reflective version from 0.1- 4m. Coaxial retro reflective versions up to 500mm and three models of diffuse reflective sensors. All sensor types suitable for flush mounting.
