Product Overview

The Omron EE-SX951-W is an L-shaped slot photomicrosensor from the EE-SX95 series It is 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 slot is 5 mm wide and 6.5 mm deep. That is the deepest slot in the EE-SX95 family and helps the flag clear the base in vibrating feeders.

The EE-SX674 is the through-beam version; the EE-SX670 is the same L-shape with Dark-ON fixed output. Key specs: Sensing Method Through-beam slot type, L-shaped body; Slot Width 5 mm; Slot Depth 6.5 mm; Light Source Infrared LED, 940 nm peak wavelength; Supply Voltage 5 to 24 VDC +/-10%, ripple 10% max; Current Consumption 15 mA maximum; Control Output NPN open-collector, 50 mA max; Light-ON / Dark-ON selectable; Connection Pre-wired 4-core vinyl cable, 1 m standard.

Key Features

  • EE-SX95-series L-shaped slot photomicrosensor, 5 mm slot width, 6.5 mm slot depth
  • NPN open-collector output, 5 to 24 VDC, 50 mA load, selectable Light-ON / Dark-ON
  • Infrared 940 nm LED emitter, 1 kHz response, IP50, 13.4 x 12 x 10 mm body
  • 1 m pre-wired 4-core vinyl cable; load short-circuit protection built in
  • SKU: EW-SX951-W-G
  • Series: EE-SX95-series photomicrosensor
  • Voltage: 5 TO 24 VDC

Best-Fit Applications

  • Spare replacement on a legacy EE-SX951-W install where the L-shape and 1 m cable match the panel cutout
  • Home-position sensing on a pick-and-place actuator where the 6.5 mm slot depth tolerates vibration-induced play
  • Detecting tab presence on a packaging line where a 5 mm opaque flag interrupts the slot every cycle

Buying Checklist

  • Choose the EE-SX951-W when the slot is 5 mm and the panel calls for an L-shaped NPN photomicrosensor with a 1 m pre-wired cable.
  • Choose the EE-SX670 instead when the same L-shape is fine but the application only needs Dark-ON fixed output.
  • Choose the EE-SX674 when a longer slot depth helps clear larger flags and the through-beam emitter is in a separate body.

FAQ for EW-SX951-W-G

What is the slot width on the EE-SX951-W?
5 mm slot width and 6.5 mm slot depth in an L-shaped body. That is the deepest slot in the EE-SX95 family and helps prevent the flag from contacting the slot base in vibrating feeders. The flag should be opaque and at least 1.8 x 0.8 mm to break the beam cleanly every cycle.
EE-SX951-W vs EE-SX670 - what is the difference?
Both are L-shaped 5 mm slot NPN photomicrosensors. The EE-SX951-W has selectable Light-ON / Dark-ON output over two wires; the EE-SX670 has Dark-ON fixed output only. Choose the 951-W when the cabinet logic may switch polarity; choose the 670 when the Dark-ON-only output is acceptable and the wiring is simpler.
Can the EE-SX951-W drive a 24 VDC PLC input?
Yes. The NPN open-collector output switches up to 50 mA at 24 VDC. Wire OUT1 or OUT2 to the PLC digital input and tie the common to 0 V. Built-in short-circuit protection absorbs wiring mistakes without damaging the sensor or the PLC input card.
What is the EE-SX951-W response time?
Response frequency is 1 kHz minimum (3 kHz typical), which corresponds to roughly 1 ms response time per slot interrupt. That covers most packaging and indexing applications running under 60 picks per minute. For higher speeds above 5 kHz, look at the EE-SX674-WR family instead.
