Key specifications of the EE-SX954-R 1M include:

Sensing Method: Through-beam (Slot type)

Sensing Distance (Slot Width) : 5mm

Output Type: NPN

Supply Voltage: DC 5V to 24V

Output Current: 50mA

Collector Current (Ic) : 15mA

Response Time: 0.5ms

Switching Frequency: 1kHz

3. What package and form factor does it have?

Shape: U-shaped

Connection: 1-meter pre-wired, flexible robot cable

Mounting: The EE-SX954-R 1M can be mounted using M2 or M3 screws

Housing Material: PBT

Dimensions: Width 13.4mm × Height 16mm × Depth 6mm

4. What applications is it suitable for?

The EE-SX954-R 1M is suitable for various object detection applications:

Industrial Automation: Detection, positioning, counting with the EE-SX954-R 1M

Robotics: The EE-SX954-R 1M is equipped with a 1m flexible robot cable, suitable for moving applications

Space-constrained devices: The EE-SX954-R 1M's ultra-compact design is ideal for limited spaces

5. What development tools or how is it connected?

As a standard industrial sensor, the EE-SX954-R 1M does not require dedicated software tools. It is connected via its pre-wired cable:

Power: Brown wire to positive (+V), Blue wire to negative (0V)

Output: Black wire is the signal output (OUT), directly connectable to a PLC input

6. What is its operating temperature range?

The EE-SX954-R 1M's operating temperature range is -25°C to +55°C.

7. What are its core features?
