IFM E21280 is a slot mask designed for O6E and O6S photoelectric sensors, featuring a 0.5 × 8 mm slit diaphragm. It provides a controlled sensing opening for precise detection of small objects. The compact stainless-steel accessory is designed for stable and reliable industrial sensor operation.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
Slit Diaphragm Design
E21280 uses a 0.5 × 8 mm slit diaphragm to modify the sensing beam of compatible O6 sensors. The elongated opening provides a controlled detection area for specialized applications. This can help improve sensing performance when a narrow optical zone is required. The design is suitable for through-beam photoelectric sensing. It provides an effective solution for customized detection requirements.
Small Object Detection
The slot mask is designed to detect small objects using compatible O6E and O6S sensors. The application range is approximately 0.8 m. The smallest detectable object can be approximately 0.3 mm under the specified conditions. The smallest object detection performance requires appropriate mask installation on both sensing sides. This allows more precise optical detection. (turn1search5)
Durable Construction
E21280 is manufactured from stainless steel and provides a compact mechanical design. The accessory measures approximately 33.5 × 12.5 × 2.8 mm. Its rigid construction helps maintain the slot geometry during operation. The material provides suitable durability for industrial applications. The compact format allows easy integration with compatible sensors.
Practical Sensor Adaptation
The slot mask provides an easy way to adapt the optical characteristics of O6 sensors without replacing the complete sensor. It can be installed where a narrow sensing area is required. The accessory is suitable for applications involving small components and precise positioning. Its compact structure supports convenient installation. It provides a simple and economical sensing modification.
