Introducing the OMRON EE-SPY312

The OMRON EE-SPY312 is a cutting-edge Light Convergent Reflective Photomicrosensor designed to accurately detect objects in a range of environments. This advanced sensor is ideal for applications requiring precise detection of small objects, including those with a shiny background.

Key Features:

• Sensing Method: The EE-SPY312 utilizes a convergent reflective method, allowing it to effectively detect objects even when placed against a shiny background, provided the distance between the sensor and the background is at least 20 mm.
• Sensing Distance: Offers a reliable sensing distance of 2 to 5 mm for a white paper target with a 90% reflection factor.
• Minimum Sensing Object: Can detect minute objects as small as a 0.05 mm diameter pure copper wire.
• Output Type: Features an NPN voltage output for versatile compatibility with a wide range of control systems.
• Operation Mode: Operates in Dark-ON mode, providing reliable detection for dark-colored objects.
• Light Source: Employs a GaAs infrared LED with a peak wavelength of 940 nm, reducing interference from external light sources.
• Power Supply: Supports a broad operating voltage range of 5 to 24 VDC, making it adaptable to various power systems.

Technical Specifications:

• Current Consumption: Average of 15 mA, with a peak of 50 mA.
• Load Current: Up to 80 mA with a residual voltage of 1.0 V max.
• Response Frequency: Minimum of 100 Hz.
• Ambient Conditions: Operates effectively in temperatures from -10°C to +55°C and humidity levels between 5% and 85%.
• Vibration and Shock Resistance: Designed to withstand vibrations up to 1.5 mm double amplitude and shocks of 500 m/s².

Safety and Compatibility:

• Degree of Protection: Rated IP50 for protection against dust.
• Materials: Constructed with durable polycarbonate (PC) for the case and polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) for the holder.

Unique Selling Points:

• Modulated Light: Reduces external light interference, ensuring stable operation in varying environments.
• Compact Design: Weighs approximately 2.6 g, making it suitable for installations where space is limited.
• Reliable Performance: Offers a consistent sensing performance with minimal.
