E3X-DA41 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The E3X-DA41 is an optical sensor amplifier manufactured by Omron Automation and Safety, designed for DIN Rail mounting. This fiber sensor amplifier operates with a supply voltage range of 12V to 24V and delivers PNP output with a maximum supply current of 75 mA. The product is classified as obsolete, making identification of compatible substitute parts essential for system maintenance and component replacement in existing installations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the E3X-DA41 are identified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional compatibility:

• Voltage Supply Range: Substitute must operate within or encompass the 12V ~ 24V range
• Output Type: PNP output configuration is required for circuit compatibility
• Operating Temperature Range: Must maintain -25°C ~ 55°C operational capability
• Mounting Type: DIN Rail mounting is preferred for form factor compatibility
• Amplifier Classification: Optical or Standard amplifier types are acceptable within the E3X and E3NX series families

Two substitute parts meet these criteria: the E3X-HD41 2M and the E3NX-FA41 2M, both from Omron Automation and Safety.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

E3X-HD41 2M: This substitute maintains identical voltage supply range (12V ~ 24V) and operating temperature specifications as the E3X-DA41. The product is active and ROHS3 compliant. Supply current is reduced to 60 mA, which is lower than the original 75 mA specification. This part is suitable for applications where the lower current draw is acceptable and where PNP open collector output is compatible with the existing circuit design.

E3NX-FA41 2M: This substitute operates across a wider voltage supply range (10V ~ 30V), providing greater flexibility in power supply configurations. The product is active and ROHS3 compliant. The extended voltage range encompasses the original 12V ~ 24V specification. Output type specification is not provided for this part, requiring verification against circuit requirements before selection.

Both substitute parts share identical operating temperature range, MSL rating, and ECCN classification with the original E3X-DA41, ensuring compatibility in environmental and regulatory contexts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the E3X-HD41 2M directly replace the E3X-DA41 in all applications?

A: The E3X-HD41 2M maintains the same voltage supply range and operating temperature as the E3X-DA41. However, the supply current is reduced from 75 mA to 60 mA. Verify that your application does not require the full 75 mA current draw before substitution.

Q: What is the primary difference between the E3X-HD41 2M and E3NX-FA41 2M substitutes?

A: The E3X-HD41 2M operates at 12V ~ 24V with a specified PNP open collector output and 60 mA supply current. The E3NX-FA41 2M operates across a wider voltage range of 10V ~ 30V. Output type is not specified for the E3NX-FA41 2M. Select based on your specific voltage supply and output requirements.

Q: Are both substitute parts currently available?

A: Yes. The E3X-HD41 2M has 1881 units in stock, and the E3NX-FA41 2M has 330435 units in stock, both listed as active products.

Q: Do the substitute parts have the same packaging as the E3X-DA41?

A: No. The E3X-DA41 packaging is listed as dash (-). The E3X-HD41 2M is supplied in Box packaging, and the E3NX-FA41 2M is supplied in Bulk packaging. Verify packaging requirements for your procurement and storage needs.

Q: Are there compliance differences between the original and substitute parts?

A: All three parts share EAR99 ECCN classification and MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating. The E3X-HD41 2M is ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. The E3NX-FA41 2M is ROHS3 compliant and REACH affected. Verify REACH compliance requirements for your application region.
