Product: E3F5D series laser passing light barrier sensor — model example E3F5DP25L What it does Laser passing light barrier sensor that detects objects crossing a focused beam. Holding detection range: up to 5 m for consistent sensing over distance. Cable length: 1.2 m for direct connection to control hardware. Key benefits — why you need it Accurate target detection: a laser light barrier provides a narrow, stable sensing path for precise object presence or interruption detection within the 5 m range. Flexible wiring and control compatibility: available output configurations support both PNP and NPN logic and offer normally open (NO) and normally closed (NC) options, simplifying integration with a wide range of PLCs and control systems. Reliable performance: designed to deliver consistent detection over the specified range, reducing missed counts and false triggers in automation tasks. Compact installation footprint: the sensor’s beam-based detection avoids contact with parts, reducing mechanical wear and simplifying mounting. Important attributes Function: laser passing light barrier sensor (E3F5D series). Model example: E3F5DP25L (available in PNP/NPN with NO/NC output types). Detection range: holding detection up to 5 m. Cable: 1.2 m fixed cable for power and signal connection. Performance: stable, beam-based detection suitable for precise object interruption sensing. Practical applications (examples) Conveyor part detection: count or verify presence of small parts as they pass a point on a production line without physical contact. Packaging alignment and edge detection: detect box edges or labels during high-speed packaging to trigger downstream processes or quality checks. Access / position sensing in automation cells: monitor gate positions or detect components entering a processing station where precise, non-contact detection is required. Why it stands out Combines long-range beam sensing (5 m) with multiple electrical output options so you can match the sensor to your control system without extra converters or rework. Laser beam detection gives a narrow, repeatable sensing path that improves accuracy for small or closely spaced targets. Simple cable connection (1.2 m) for straightforward installation into existing wiring. Ordering note Confirm the required output type (PNP or NPN, NO or NC) when selecting model; E3F5DP25L represents the E3F5D series with these available options.
