Compact Photoelectric Sensor | E3Z-T61 | SICK

Model:  E3Z-T61

Type:     Sensor

Introduction:

Embrace extended sensing ranges of 1 m for diffuse-reflective models, 4 m for retro-reflective models, and 30 m for through-beam models, providing versatile coverage.
Simplify adjustments with an offset of less than ±2.5° between mechanical and optical axes, ensuring ease in optical axis adjustment.
Achieve excellent stability using a special algorithm that effectively shields against interference from external light sources.

Wiring Procedures:

• Ensure the sensor’s power source aligns with its rated voltage range to prevent burnout or explosion.
• Mitigate damage risks by avoiding short-circuiting the load.
• Prevent internal component damage by refraining from connecting the power supply when no load is present.
• Allow a 100 ms power reset time after activating the sensor for optimal performance.

M8 Connector Handling:

• Exercise caution by turning off the sensor’s power supply when connecting or unplugging the metal connector.
• Maintain a secure connection by holding the cover during connector operations, manually tightening without resorting to pliers
• Adhere to recommended torque (0.3 to 0.4 N•m) and connector conditions for other connectors.

Mounting Guidelines:

• Avoid mutual interference by ensuring optical axes are not in opposition when sensors are positioned face-to-face.
• Safeguard against direct exposure to intense light sources during installation.
• Preserve water resistance by refraining from striking the sensor with tools.
• Secure mounting with M3 screws, ensuring the tightening torque does not exceed 0.54 N•m.
• Confirm the sensing side is parallel to the sensing object’s surface; adjust by 5° to 10° for glossy surfaces, preventing inclination towards the sensing item direction.
