Omron E3S-CD61 Photoelectric Switch

The Omron E3S-CD61 Photoelectric Switch is a diffuse-reflective sensor that enables reliable, non-contact object detection in automation systems. It operates from 12 to 24 VDC with a red LED light source, provides an NPN output, and offers a fast response suitable for high-speed lines, with a sensing distance of approximately up to 1 meter (model dependent) and an IP67-rated housing built from industrial-grade ABS/polycarbonate. The unit supports Light ON / Dark ON operation and accepts standard bracket or panel mounting for easy integration in conveyor systems, packaging machines, and assembly lines across logistics, food and beverage, pharmaceutical packaging, and manufacturing settings. Common replacements include Omron E3S-CD62, E3Z-D61, and E3JK-DS30M1.
