The S3D8 sensor controller offers high-speed logic control and complex detection capabilities. It has a self-contained power supply (12 VDC) that eliminates the need for an external sensor power supply. It also has a fast input response time (1 ms) that enables the detection of minute or high-speed objects. The S3D8 does not require manual programming thanks to its teaching function. Its effective noise rejection function also offers better operation reliability, assuring stable operation regardless of the type of input (contact or solid-state input). The S3D8 can be configured with either contact output or transistor output, depending on your application. It also has four or eight input points and slim amplifiers that can be track connected without wiring. Various program memory chips are available for the S3D8 (RAM, PROM, and EEPROM).
The Omron S3D8 Sensor Controller is a self‑contained unit with a 12 VDC internal power supply, supporting up to eight input points and selectable contact or transistor outputs. It offers fast input response (1 ms for transistor inputs) and a variety of logic functions such as AND, OR, timers, counters, and shift registers.
The manual details key operations, programming steps, error messages, and application examples for bottling, metal processing, food processing, and textile machines. It also explains how to use the optional S3D‑P setting unit for program entry, monitoring, and on‑the‑fly timer adjustments.
