Ultra-compact flat-view through-beam sensor with a 500mm sensing range and PNP Light-ON output. Features a slim 3.5mm profile, built-in amplifier, and IP67-rated PBT housing for precise detection in tight spaces.
The Omron E3T-FT13 2M is an ultra-compact, flat-view photoelectric sensor designed for space-constrained industrial environments. Featuring a built-in amplifier and a narrow 3.5mm depth profile, this through-beam sensor detects opaque objects up to 500mm away. It operates on a 12 to 24 VDC power supply and outputs via a PNP open-collector circuit in Light-ON mode. With a robust IP67 ingress protection rating, PBT housing, and rapid 1 ms response time, it is engineered for high-precision, high-speed automated machinery.

Integration into robotic transfer arms used for handling delicate silicon wafers inside semiconductor manufacturing equipment.
Standard sensors fail to fit in tight mounting geometries. The flat-view E3T-FT13 solves this with its 3.5mm ultra-thin profile and simple M2 screw mounting, preventing mechanical collisions without sacrificing the 500mm optical range.
Validating the continuous position of small medical vials or blister packs along ultra-fast conveyor guide rails.
High-throughput packaging lines require high-speed acquisition to prevent missed counts. The sensor's 1 ms response time ensures reliable detection of fast-moving products, while the built-in amplifier prevents signal degradation.
Utilized in Surface Mount Technology (SMT) robotics to confirm the presence of tiny electronic components before placing them onto PCBs.
Assembly environments expose sensors to microscopic dust which can block standard optics. The IP67 rating ensures dust-tight operation, while the 2-meter pre-wired cable allows robust signaling to remote I/O modules moving along the robotic gantry.
