Omron produce industrial sensors range such as fiber sensors, photoelectric sensors, displacement sensors/ measurement sensors, proximity sensors, photomicro sensors and rotary encodes.

Features

• Ensures a sensing distance approximately 1.5 to 2 times larger than that of any conventional OMRON Sensor.

• Problems such as the collision of workpieces are eliminated.

• Full range of standard sizes (M8, M12, M18 and M30; both long and short barrels)

• Modular construction simplifies customization.

Note: M30 non-shielded Models with double sensing distance and short barrels cannot be mounted due to the necessary separation distance from the surrounding metal. Standard sensing models are thus available.

*1. The response frequency is an average value. Measurement conditions are as follows: standard target, a distance of twice the standard target distance between targets, and a setting distance of half the sensing distance.
*2. When using any model at an ambient temperature between −40°C and −25°C and a power voltage between 30 and 32 VDC, use a load current of 100 mA max.,
*3. For USA and CANADA : use class 2 circuit only.
