Description

The Omron EE-SX672P photomicrosensor operates on the principle of infrared light interruption. An internal 940 nm LED emitter faces a phototransistor receiver across a 5 mm slot. When an opaque object passes through the slot, it interrupts the beam, causing the PNP open-collector output to switch states, providing a clear digital signal for object presence.

Built with a rugged housing of polybutylene phthalate (PBT) and polycarbonate (PC), the sensor is designed to withstand industrial conditions, including shock and vibration. Its wide operating temperature range of -25°C to +55°C and IP50 protection rating ensure stable performance in challenging automation, packaging, and assembly line applications.

Key Features

  • Precision Slot Sensing: 5 mm slot width enables detection of minute objects down to 2.0 mm × 0.8 mm dimensions.
  • High-Speed Infrared Operation: 940 nm peak wavelength LED source allows for a fast response frequency up to 3 kHz.
  • Robust Electrical Interface: PNP open-collector output with Dark/Light-ON selectable function for flexible integration into 5-24 VDC control systems.
  • Industrial Durability: Housing constructed from PBT and PC materials with an IP50 rating, resistant to shock and vibration.
  • Wide Operational Range: Functions reliably from -25°C to +55°C, suitable for varied industrial environments.
  • Optimized Power Design: Low current consumption with built-in short-circuit protection for enhanced system safety.

Applications

  • High-speed object counting and presence detection on conveyor belts.
  • Precision paper or label feed detection in printing and packaging machinery.
  • Position verification and end-of-travel sensing in automated assembly systems.
  • Slot detection in vending machines and automated dispensing equipment.
  • Jam detection and part positioning in textile and small parts manufacturing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the minimum object size the EE-SX672P can detect?

The EE-SX672P can reliably detect opaque objects with minimum dimensions of 2.0 mm in width and 0.8 mm in thickness that pass through its 5 mm slot. It is designed for high-precision detection of small parts in automated systems.

How do I select between Dark-ON and Light-ON operation modes?

The sensor features a selectable Dark/Light-ON function, typically configured via internal wiring or an external control circuit as specified in the datasheet. Dark-ON means the output turns ON when the beam is blocked, while Light-ON means the output is ON when the beam is received.

What is the wiring configuration for the PNP open-collector output?

The PNP open-collector output requires connecting the load (e.g., a PLC input or relay) between the output wire and the negative supply (0V). When active, the output transistor sinks current to ground. Always ensure your power supply is within the 5-24 VDC range and observe correct polarity.

Can this sensor be used in environments with dust or moisture?

The EE-SX672P has an IP50 rating, meaning it is protected against limited dust ingress but is not protected against water. It is suitable for relatively clean industrial environments but should not be used in wet, high-humidity, or heavily dust-laden conditions without additional protection.
