Omron E2E-X2B1D12 2M Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X2B1D12 2M pairs a compact M12 short body with a 2 mm shielded inductive sensing range for precise metal detection. It uses a DC 3-wire PNP NO output through a pre-wired 2 m cable and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. The setting distance is 0 to 1.6 mm, while ferrous metal is specified as the target material with an iron 12 × 12 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency reaches 1,500 Hz, and the one-output model supports up to 200 mA. Reverse-polarity, surge, and output short-circuit protection are specified. The E2E-X2B1D12 2M is positioned among M12 PNP inductive sensors from Omron advanced automation sensors.

The Omron E2E-X2B1D12 2M Proximity Sensor combines an M12 short-body format with a shielded 2 mm inductive detection range and a 0 to 1.6 mm setting distance. Its DC 3-wire PNP output operates in NO mode through a pre-wired 2 m cable and accepts 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified sensing target, using an iron 12 × 12 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 1,500 Hz. The one-output version supports up to 200 mA, while supply reverse-polarity protection, surge suppression, output short-circuit protection, and output reverse polarity are specified. SIO and IO-Link modes include operation and communication status indicators.
Operating and storage conditions for the E2E-X2B1D12 extend from -40 to 85°C. IEC 60529 IP67 and ISO 20653 are listed among the protection specifications. The shielded M12 design supports mounting near surrounding metal, while its 2 mm sensing distance suits applications requiring a controlled short detection gap. The short body minimizes required rear mounting space, and the fixed 2 m cable allows direct connection to machine controls. Nickel-plated brass, PBT, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are specified among the construction materials. Its 1,500 Hz response frequency supports frequent switching in automated processes. The supplied comparison data does not specify a separate alternative model for this sensor.
