Information About E3XR-GM5RE4
The E3XR-GM5RE4 is a grooved-type photoelectric sensor from Omron’s E3XR series, developed specifically for mark detection and positioning control tasks. It features an integrated emitter and receiver in a U-shaped housing, allowing stable detection of printed marks, labels, and contrasting targets as materials pass through the slot. The sensor uses a visible red LED (660 nm) to enhance contrast detection and simplify alignment during installation. With its NPN transistor output and pre-wired 2-meter cable, it integrates easily into standard DC control circuits used in packaging, labeling, and converting machinery.
Key Features:
- Grooved Mark Sensor Design: Integrated emitter and receiver for precise registration mark detection.
- 660 nm Red LED Light Source: Provides strong contrast sensing and easy alignment.
- Light-ON Operation Mode: Output activates when light is received for defined control logic.
- NPN Transistor Output: Compatible with common industrial DC input modules.
- 12–24 VDC Power Supply: Supports standard automation system voltages.
- 2-Meter Pre-Wired Cable: Simplifies installation and wiring in machinery.
- Compact U-Shaped Housing: Designed for installation in labeling and printing equipment.
The E3XR-GM5RE4 delivers the reliability and precision required for high-speed mark detection and positioning control applications.
