Product details
Frequently asked questions
What is its output type?
NPN open-collector output for sinking to a PLC or controller.
What is its sensing method and range?
Through-beam with a maximum sensing distance of 300 mm. It uses a GaAs infrared LED light source.
Can it replace an E3T-FT11 directly?
Not without mechanical changes. Both are NPN, Light-ON through-beam sensors, but the EE-SPW421-A has a 300 mm range and a block amplifier body, while the E3T-FT11 has a 500 mm range and a compact rectangular 12×4×19 mm sensor head. Verify mounting footprint before substitution.
