These sensors reliably detect all targets within their sensing range and up to a distance of 2.4m – irrespective of variances in colour, reflectance, contrast or surface shape. This makes the reflective sensors of the E67 series Eaton’s most powerful photoelectric sensors with background rejection. 

The sensors are manufactured with fixed operating distances between 60 and 240cm (in 10cm stages). Thus, the user does not have to define any further settings and the devices are optimally adapted to the specific application requirements. Users therefore benefit from simple installation and handling, which helps prevent operating errors and keeps downtime to a minimum. 

Eaton developed the E67 Long Range Perfect Prox series to meet the needs of the most demanding photoelectric sensor applications. The long range sensors can detect targets such as flat, black targets, very transparent targets like film, or off-angle targets.The Perfect Prox technology is said to allow for optimal background suppression and reliable operation of the reflex sensors. Furthermore, two LEDs at the top of the sensors give a clear visible indication of the operating and output status, enabling users to determine immediately whether the sensors are functional or whether they are currently detecting a target. This simplifies the monitoring and maintenance of the devices.

The E67 sensors are available in a DC version (18-30 V DC) and a version that allows both DC and AC operation (20-132 V AC/DC). The purely DC models are provided with NPN and PNP outputs. The long range sensors come in a fully encapsulated housing with protection to IP67. Two mounting options allow for flexible installation.
