Lifecycle status and sourcing
The Omron E3HT-1E1 is listed at a mature lifecycle stage.
This is a photoelectric sensor from Omron's E3HT series. The part number E3HT-1E1 identifies a specific sensing mode and output configuration — the datasheet defines whether it is through-beam, retro-reflective, or diffuse, and whether the output is NPN or PNP. Confirm these against the application before specifying, as the E3HT family includes multiple variants with different optical and electrical characteristics.
