The **EE-1016-R** is a specific connector cable assembly manufactured by **Omron**. It is primarily designed to interface with Omron’s line of Photomicrosensors (optical switches). --- ## 1. Technical Specifications The EE-1016-R is a connector with a built-in cable, engineered for secure electrical connection and signal transmission. | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Manufacturer** | Omron Automation | | **Type** | Connector with Cable (Robot Cable) | | **Length** | 2 Meters (Standard) | | **Number of Poles** | 3-pin or 4-pin (depending on sensor compatibility) | | **Wire Type** | Robot Cable (High-flexibility) | | **Appearance** | L-shaped or Straight connector head | --- ## 2. Key Electronic Components & Features ### A. Robot Cable (R-suffix) The "R" in the part number signifies **Robot Cable**. Unlike standard PVC cables, robot cables are designed for: * **Flex Life:** High resistance to repeated bending and twisting. * **Durability:** Enhanced insulation to prevent internal wire breakage in moving machinery. ### B. Pin Configuration These cables usually follow a standard color-coding scheme for industrial sensors: * **Brown:** Power Supply (+V / Vcc) * **Blue:** Common / Ground (0V) * **Black:** Output Signal (OUT) ### C. Connector Housing The connector head features a **Locking Mechanism**. This is a physical plastic tab that snaps into the sensor housing to ensure the connection does not vibrate loose in industrial environments. --- ## 3. Compatible Sensors The EE-1016-R is commonly used with the following Omron Photomicrosensor series: * **EE-SX67 Series** (e.g., EE-SX670, EE-SX671, EE-SX674) * **EE-SY67 Series** * **EE-SPX Series** --- ## 4. Usage Considerations When integrating this part into a circuit, keep the following in mind: 1. **Voltage Rating:** Typically rated for **5 to 24 VDC**, matching the operating voltage of the sensors. 2. **Current Capacity:** Designed for low-current signal transmission (usually < 50mA). 3. **Bend Radius:** While it is a robot cable, ensure the bend radius does not exceed the manufacturer's limit to maintain the 2-million+ bend cycle rating. ---
