Omron E2E-X1R5C2L8-M5 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X1R5C2L8-M5 provides NPN normally closed switching from an M8 shielded long-body sensor with a 1.5 mm sensing range. The sensing face supports a 0 to 1.2 mm setting distance, and the M8 3-pin connector allows detachable wiring. The unit operates from 10 to 30 VDC with a 2,000 Hz response frequency. Reverse polarity, surge suppression, and output short-circuit protection are provided. Check the E2E-X1R5C2L8-M5 under the E2E NEXT Series, then compare other M8 NPN proximity sensors available among sensing products from Omron Sensors.

The Omron E2E-X1R5C2L8-M5 Proximity Sensor uses an M8 shielded inductive body with a 1.5 mm sensing distance, 0 to 1.2 mm setting range, and long-body construction. Its DC 3-wire NPN normally closed output connects through an M8 3-pin connector and works from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metals are specified as the sensing material, with an iron 8 × 8 × 1 mm standard object. Response frequency is 2,000 Hz. Current ratings reach 200 mA max. for 1-output models and 50 mA max. for 2-output versions. Supply reverse polarity, surge suppression, output short circuit, and output reverse polarity protection are included.
The temperature range covers -40 to 85°C for operation and storage, while IP67 according to IEC 60529 and ISO 20653 are specified for this M8 NPN proximity sensor. Stainless steel SUS303, PBT, nickel-plated brass, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are listed in the construction details. For removable M8 wiring with normally closed NPN logic, the E2E-X1R5C2L8-M5 provides long threaded mounting and a 1.5 mm sensing distance. For an M18 PNP NO+NC model with fixed cable wiring, see E2E-X16MB3D18 2M.
