Product Description P/N: E51DC1
Description
The Eaton E51DC1 is a photoelectric sensor head for the E51 Series modular limit-switch-style sensing system. It is a through-beam detector with a 300 ft (90 m) sensing range, designed to detect objects using an optical beam and provide non-contact sensing for industrial automation and machine-control applications. The sensor head uses a four-position mounting arrangement and includes sensitivity adjustment.

Information About OHDM E51DC1
The E51DC1 is the detector-head component of Eaton's E51 modular photoelectric sensor system and is not intended to operate as a complete sensor by itself. It is used with an appropriate E51 solid-state switch body, wiring receptacle, and compatible 300 ft source to form a complete through-beam photoelectric detector. The detector provides a 300 ft (90 m) sensing range, an 18-inch field of view at 20 ft, and response times of 10 ms for AC operation and 5 ms for DC operation. Its sensing head can be positioned in four discrete orientations spaced 90 degrees apart, providing flexibility when installing the sensor on industrial machinery.
Key Features:
- Through-Beam Detection: Uses a separate optical source and detector arrangement for reliable non-contact object detection.
- 300 ft Sensing Range: Provides a maximum rated sensing distance of 300 ft (90 m) when used with the appropriate source.
- Modular E51 Design: Functions as the detector head within Eaton's modular E51 limit-switch-style photoelectric sensor system.
- Sensitivity Adjustment: Includes an adjustable sensitivity control for configuring detection performance.
- Four-Position Head: Can be installed in four discrete positions located 90 degrees apart.
- Fast Response: Provides 10 ms AC response and 5 ms DC response according to Eaton's current photoelectric sensor documentation.
- Rugged Construction: Designed for industrial environments and applications subject to shock, vibration, and washdown conditions.
- Environmental Protection: The E51 sensor system is rated NEMA 3, 3S, 4, 4X, 6, 6P, 12, 13 and IP67 when properly configured.
The E51DC1 delivers the reliability and precision required for industrial object detection, machine automation, conveyor systems, and control applications.
