Omron · Sensors & Instrumentation

Description  The Omron E3M‑VG16 is a discontinued diffuse-reflective photoelectric sensor specifically designed for color-mark detection on paper, labels, and packaging. It offers a compact M12 plug-in design and reliable DC PNP output.     Technical Specifications  Condition New/Never Used Surplus Brand Omron  Category Sensors & Switches Part Number E3M-VG16 Subcategory Photoelectric Function Colour Mark Detection Sensing Distance 10 mm Light Spot Size 1×4 mm Supply Voltage DC Output Type PNP Connection Type M12 Plug-in Connector Weight 0.20 lbs       Information About E3M-VG16 The E3M-VG16 is a photoelectric color mark sensor from Omron’s E3M-V series, engineered for high-speed detection of printed registration marks on packaging and labels. Featuring a compact M12 plug-in format, 10 mm sensing range, and DC PNP output, it delivers fast, stable performance in color mark recognition. Though no longer in production, it remains available through surplus and refurbished automation suppliers. Key Features: Omron Engineered: Part of Omron’s E3M-V series, purpose-built for precise mark detection on high-speed packaging lines. Color Mark Detection: Optimized for sensing subtle contrasts in color marks on films, labels, and glossy surfaces. Defined Sensing Range: Operates effectively at ~10 mm with a 1×4 mm spot size for narrow detection zones. PNP Output: Equipped with a PNP open-collector switching output for easy integration into modern control systems. M12 Plug-In Connection: Facilitates quick installation and maintenance in industrial environments. Fast Response Time: Delivers a fast reaction (approx. 50 µs ON) for high-speed processes and tight registration control. DC Operation: Powered by 10–30 VDC for use in standard low-voltage sensor circuits. Rugged Build: Housed in durable, IP67-rated PBT casing to withstand dust, moisture, and oil exposure. Discontinued Model: Obsolete since 2012, but still supported through aftermarket suppliers with warranty options. The E3M-VG16 remains a reliable and proven solution for legacy applications requiring consistent color mark detection. Its precise performance, compact design, and continued availability make it a suitable replacement for maintaining older packaging systems.
