Overview

The EE-SX670P is a global-standard slotted optical sensor with a 5mm through-beam sensing distance and PNP open collector output. It features a versatile 5V to 24V supply voltage range and a fast 1ms response time, making it suitable for high-speed position and limit detection in industrial environments.

Why Choose This Part

This module offers high reliability with a wide operating temperature range of -25degC to 55degC and low current consumption of 12mA. Its PNP output configuration and selectable Dark-ON/Light-ON operation allow for easy integration with industrial PLCs and safety controllers.

Applications

Limit Switching
Detecting the end-of-travel position for linear actuators and motorized stages in automated machinery.
Encoder Indexing
Acting as a home position or index pulse sensor for rotating disks or notched gears.
Object Counting
Detecting the presence or passage of small components on high-speed conveyor systems.
Robot Arm Calibration
Providing precise repeatable homing signals for robotic joints and end effectors.
