Features:
- Defined target path: The through-slot geometry gives a clear mechanical sensing zone for flags and moving members.
- Logic flexibility: Selectable light-on or dark-on behavior allows the signal convention to match the machine sequence.
- Serviceable connector: The detachable T-shaped interface supports replacement without an integral flying lead.
EE-SX672A combines an emitter and receiver in one slotted housing so the machine target interrupts a fixed optical path.
Its exact A configuration identifies the connector-body orientation used to route the harness around nearby mechanism parts.
Correct replacement requires matching the NPN input circuit and proving target travel does not strike or scrape the sensor.
Apter Power can help confirm the Omron EE-SX672A T-Shaped Slot-Type Photomicrosensor, NPN interface, connector arrangement and mechanical target path before quotation.

Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.
- Slot alignment: Center the flag through the optical path without allowing contact with either arm.
- Travel margin: Check the full mechanism stroke, vibration and backlash rather than a static hand position.
- Target surface: Prevent translucent or reflective geometry from creating an unintended partial beam condition.
- Contamination control: Keep oil, dust and chips away from the emitter and receiver windows.
- Output polarity: Connect only to an input circuit designed for an NPN open-collector signal.
- Mode selection: Set light-on or dark-on to preserve the machine’s normal and fault-state logic.
- Connector proof: Verify mating connector and pin allocation before applying supply power.
- Input observation: Compare the local indication with the controller state during a slow controlled stroke.
- No transition: Separate blocked optics, missing supply, wrong mode and input-common faults.
- Intermittent signal: Inspect target wobble, connector retention and contamination before replacing the sensor.
- Mechanical damage: Correct misalignment that lets the moving flag touch the slotted body.
- Change evidence: Record the complete suffix and connector orientation before removing the original unit.
- Position flags: Detects a moving tab at a defined machine location.
- Small-part mechanisms: Confirms presence or passage within the protected slot.
- Cam and shutter sensing: Converts mechanical interruption into a PLC-readable NPN signal.
- Compact equipment: Fits constrained layouts where the T-shaped connector route is required.
