Product Overview
The Omron EE-SX951-W-G is a miniature L-shape slot photomicrosensor from the EE-SX95 family, manufactured by Omron Corporation. Hengyixin Automation ships this sensor from our Xiamen warehouse with a 30-day DOA return window and a datasheet PDF included in the box.
The emitter and receiver face each other across a 5 mm slot with a 6.5 mm sensing depth. The L-shape keeps the cable exit parallel to the mounting surface so the body fits where the standard T-shape cannot. The output is NPN, switchable between Dark-ON and Light-ON on the lead wire.
Supply is 5 to 24 VDC, collector current 15 mA max, forward current 50 mA max. Response is 0.5 ms. The PBT body is 13.4 x 12 x 12 mm. The pre-wired cable carries the brown (+V), blue (0 V), black (output) and pink (mode) leads. The -G suffix marks the gold-tinned lead finish for corrosion-sensitive panels. Operating temperature -25 to 55 degC. For a T-shape body on the same spec, pick the EE-SX870.
Key Features
- EE-SX95 L-shape slot photomicrosensor, 5 mm slot width, 6.5 mm depth
- NPN open-collector output, Dark-ON / Light-ON selectable, 0.5 ms response
- 5 to 24 VDC supply, 15 mA collector, pre-wired cable, gold-tinned leads (-G)
- PBT housing, 13.4 x 12 x 12 mm, -25 to 55 degC
- SKU: EE-SX951-W-G
- Series: Omron EE-SX95-series photomicrosensor (slot, L-shape)
- Voltage: 5 TO 24 VDC
Best-Fit Applications
- Label-edge detection on a print-and-apply head where the 5 mm slot accepts the label web and the 0.5 ms response catches the printed edge
- Tab-presence check on a feeder track where the L-shape body sits inside the bracket and the NPN output drives a CP1W high-speed input
- Spare replacement on a packaging line where the old EE-SX951 slot sensor failed and the new EE-SX951-W-G drops onto the same bracket and cable
Buying Checklist
- Pick the EE-SX951-W-G for an L-shape 5 mm slot sensor with NPN output, gold-tinned leads and a pre-wired cable.
- Pick the EE-SX951-W 1M instead when the standard tinned-lead version is fine on the same body.
- Pick the EE-SX870 instead when the bracket needs a T-shape body with Dark-ON on the same electrical spec.

FAQ for EE-SX951-W-G
What does the -G suffix mean on EE-SX951-W?
G marks the gold-tinned lead finish, which resists oxidation in humid or corrosive panels. The body, electrical spec and slot width are the same as the standard EE-SX951-W with tinned leads.
How is Dark-ON / Light-ON selected?
Wire the mode terminal (pink on the EE-SX951 lead) to +V for Light-ON (output ON when the beam is received) or leave open for Dark-ON (output ON when the beam is broken).
How small a target can the EE-SX951 detect?
Down to 0.8 x 1.5 mm opaque at the centre of the slot. Thin wires and transparent objects will not trigger the sensor. For finer resolution, use a smaller-slot model such as the EE-SX674 family.
Can the EE-SX951-W-G run on 5 V logic?
Yes. The unit runs on 5 to 24 VDC, so it can sit directly on a 5 V logic supply or a 24 V PLC input. Residual voltage is 0.4 V max at 5 mA load.
