E3Z Condition Monitoring
Reduces total cost of ownership
What E3Z can do for you
• Proven stable operation...
…in changing environments
…long beyond life expectancy
…wherever your machines go
• Simplified machine design – every functionality in one
housing format
• Best price/performance ratio – designed for mass production

E3Z sensors
redefine reliability
Nothing can stop E3Z sensors because they are designed
to beat whatever comes their way. For example, advanced
pulse synchronization ensures continuous operation even
in changing light conditions, such as artificial light and bright
backgrounds. Intensive shielding prevents malfunctions due
to inverter noise or wireless communications equipment.
And a precision optical system with high-power LED minimizes
the risk of malfunctions due to dirt or misalignment.

E3ZM - reliability and cost
efficiency in stainless steel
In hygienic or harsh environments, stainless steel is the
material of choice. Thanks to a new moulding technology,
OMRON has made sensors with stainless-steel housings
available to a broader market. With an extended sensor lifetime
of up to 20 times or more compared to other plastic or metal
housing sensors, the E3ZM series reduces machine downtime
and service costs due to sensor malfunctions caused
by aggressive agents, high-pressure washdown
or mechanical damage.
