Omron L-shaped Slotted-type Photoelectric Micro Sensor EE-SX671-WR 1M

EE-SX671-WR Omron Sensor EESX671WR, EE-SX671-WR Through-beam Photoelectric Switch Micro Sensor, Omron EE-SX671-WR Fork Sensor 5mm Range(slot width), NPN open collector output

The Omron EE-SX671-WR 1M is an L-shaped, slotted-type photoelectric micro sensor that uses a through-beam method to detect objects. It has a 5 mm slot width and an NPN open collector output that can be configured for either Light-ON or Dark-ON operation. The "1M" in the model name indicates that it has a pre-wired, 1-meter cable.
