Omron E3AS Photoelectric Sensors
Product Overview
We know that part detection can be a challenge. The new E3AS time of flight (TOF) and background suppression (BGS) photoelectric sensors from Omron can help. Factors such as bright backgrounds, changing target colors, unusual contours, and reflectivity can cause issues. If your targets vary significantly, choosing the correct photoelectric sensors can improve performance.
The E3AS photoelectric sensors will improve your process if you are struggling with part detection due to changing part features. With options for both long-range, large-part detection, as well as short-range, small part detection there is likely a sensor to fit your application. Additionally, the E3AS sensors are user-friendly and flexible allowing for quick and easy implementation.
Key Benefits
- They reduce error rates. E3AS time-of-flight/background suppression sensors reliably detect targets, including those with variable features.
- They promote flexibility. The two E3AS families allow users to choose between long-range and short-range sensors to fit their sensing needs.
- They enable IIoT applications. The E3AS line uses IO-Link to help with sensors configuration. The E3AS-F family’s distance output can be monitored via IO-Link.
- They reduce the frequency of shutdowns. The E3AS sensors are ruggedized for harsh environments thanks to their IP69K washdown resistance, IP67G oil resistance, and Ecolab certification for detergent resistance.
- They improve setup times. The sensors’ user-friendly design, single teach button, and IO-Link configurability make setup easy.
