Description
Omron EE-SPY402 Slot-Type Photomicrosensor Vertical NPN 5mm Cable EE-1003
The Omron EE-SPY402 is a slot-type photomicrosensor with a vertical mounting orientation and an integrated cable assembly. It uses an infrared emitter/detector pair positioned across a narrow slot to detect the presence or passage of an object interrupting the beam — outputting a signal via its NPN open-collector transistor output when light is received (Light-ON mode). The sensor mounts via its flanged body and connects to control systems through the attached cable, which terminates in bare wire leads for direct wiring or splicing.

Applications
Slot-type photomicrosensors like the Omron EE-SPY402 are widely used in factory automation and motion control systems for precise object detection, position sensing, and counting applications. Common uses include detecting encoder disk slots in rotary encoders, sensing paper or film edges in printers and copiers, registering component presence on conveyor lines, and providing end-of-travel or home-position detection in robotics and CNC equipment. The EE-SPY series is a long-running Omron product line designed for integration into compact automated mechanisms where small size, low operating voltage, and reliable switching are required. These sensors are still found in active service in semiconductor handling equipment, packaging machinery, and precision motion stages.
This Omron EE-SPY402 slot-type photomicrosensor was pulled from a large working setup and has not been powered or tested at our facility. The cable leads terminate in bare wires (blue, brown, and black leads visible in photos), with a spade terminal and EE-1003 connector plug at the sensor end. The sensor body shows some light surface marking consistent with prior use, but no visible physical damage. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions.
