Product description

The Omron E3S-AD36 is a retro-reflective photoelectric sensor designed for reliable object detection. It offers a sensing distance of up to 5 meters, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. This sensor features a 4-wire NPN output and includes an adjustable timer function for added flexibility in control logic.

This retro-reflective sensor is commonly used in industrial automation for detecting the presence or absence of objects on conveyor belts, in packaging lines, and for general presence detection. Its ability to work without a separate reflector simplifies installation in many scenarios.

Stanlo Automation, a veteran-owned supplier of surplus industrial automation parts, carries the Omron E3S-AD36. We help you find the components you need to keep your operations running smoothly.
