Technical Overview
The Omron E3JK-RN12-C is a pre-wired E3JK retro-reflective, with msr photoelectric sensor, rated for 6 m with E39-R1 reflector or 10 m with E39-R2 reflector. This configuration uses red led, 624 nm, 10–30 vdc including 10% p-p ripple and npn open collector output; the stated response time is 1 ms max. and enclosure rating is IP64. The -C version includes a mounting bracket, and retro-reflective -C versions include an E39-R1 reflector. Current supply status is not established by the consulted manufacturer material and is recorded as Unknown.

Suggested applications
Engineering suggestions require suitability checks for your installation.
1. Conveyor object detection
A conveyor line may need to identify products across a defined sensing gap or against a fixed surface.
Potential use
Evaluate the retro-reflective, with msr geometry and 6 m with E39-R1 reflector or 10 m with E39-R2 reflector range with the actual target; confirm output wiring and response in the control circuit.
Retro-reflective with MSR
6 m with E39-R1 reflector or 10 m with E39-R2 reflector
NPN open collector
1 ms max.
2. Machine station presence confirmation
A station may need a discrete presence signal for a part or carrier before the next operation.
Potential use
Use the npn open collector output with a compatible input and verify the target, reflector or emitter/receiver alignment as applicable.
