Omron E32 DATASHEET
Fiber optic sensors
E32/E3X
• wide portfolio range of fiber sensing
heads
• application oriented design for long
operational lifetime
• high precision in design and manufacturing for high application accuracy
• fiber and amplifier designs for easy installation and set up
Features
Long operational lifetime
Ensuring that the sensors do not fail during production and require only minimal service attention enhances productivity and reduces maintenance costs.
1. Models with enhanced protection and tested
resistance against harsh environments
• Tested resistance against aggressive chemicals,
extreme temperatures, low pressure (vacuum),
mechanical abuse
Easy to set up and adjust
With minimal time required for mounting the fibers
the productivity can be enhanced for machine builders and the easy setting of the amplifiers simplifies
production changes for machine users.
1. Easy-teach amplifiers or manual adjusters
• Easy manual adjustment by potentiometer
• One-button auto teach for in-process dynamic
teaching, or two-point object teaching
2. Preventing fiber breakage
• Housing construction preventing protruding
cables (e.g. square shape, side view models)
• High flex fibers with 1mm bending radius for close
wall mounting
• Robot fibers tested with more than one million
bending cycles
• Protective metal or plastic tubes
3. Operational stability
• LED power control against aging effects
• Auto-threshold control for enhanced
compensation of power decrease, e.g.
through dirt on lenses
2. Wide range of easy-to-mount fibers
• One-screw-mount fibers with hexagonal back
• Square shapes for simple surface mounting
• Side view for simple alignment
• Application-optimised housings (e.g. fork shape
for label and foil detection, tube for liquid level
detection, etc.)
High accuracy in smallest size
OMRON’s precise manufacturing processes with inspection system supported alignment of the fibers
and lenses achieve minimal tolerance variations in
all standard models and allow the detection of the
smallest objects and height differences of less than
100 µm.
• High beam axis accuracy for side view models
through precise fiber bending or angle mirror
surface treatment
• High spot evaluation precision on coaxial models
through equal fiber distribution
• Accurate distance setting through precise lens
and beam alignment
