Omron E2E-X5E1 2M Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X5E1 2M is an M18 shielded inductive proximity sensor with a 5 mm sensing distance and a 0 to 4 mm setting distance. It uses a DC 3-wire NPN output with NO operation through a pre-wired 2 m oil-resistant PVC cable and operates from 12 to 24 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified detectable object, with an iron 18 × 18 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 0.6 kHz, current consumption is 13 mA max., and differential travel is 10% max. of sensing distance. A red operation indicator, load short-circuit protection, surge suppression, reverse-polarity protection, and IP67 protection are specified. The E2E-X5E1 2M is listed under NPN proximity sensors from Omron sensing products.

The Omron E2E-X5E1 2M Proximity Sensor uses an M18 shielded inductive sensing body with a 5 mm sensing distance and a 0 to 4 mm setting distance. It provides a DC 3-wire NPN output with NO operation through a pre-wired 2 m oil-resistant PVC cable and operates from 12 to 24 VDC. Ferrous metal is specified as the detectable object, with an iron 18 × 18 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 0.6 kHz, current consumption is 13 mA max., and differential travel is 10% max. of sensing distance. A red operation indicator is provided, while load short-circuit protection, surge suppression, and reverse-polarity protection are specified.
Operating and storage conditions for the E2E-X5E1 extend from -40 to 85°C, with humidity from 35% to 95%. Temperature influence is ±15% max. of sensing distance at 23°C across -40 to 85°C and ±10% max. across -25 to 70°C. Insulation resistance is 50 MΩ min. at 500 VDC, dielectric strength is 1,000 VAC for 1 minute, and voltage influence is ±1% max. within rated voltage ±15%. IP67 is the specified protection level. The 5 mm shielded sensing format is paired with NPN NO switching and the 2 m oil-resistant PVC cable. For another M18 E2E sensor using the same NPN NO output and pre-wired connection but a 10 mm unshielded sensing distance, see E2E-X10ME1 2M.
