Omron E2E-X2B1T8-M1 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X2B1T8-M1 brings precise 2 mm metal detection to compact M8 installations using a shielded inductive sensing format. Its setting distance is 0 to 1.6 mm, while the DC 3-wire PNP circuit provides NO switching through an M12 connector and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified target, with an iron 8 × 8 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency reaches 1,500 Hz, and the one-output configuration supports up to 200 mA. Reverse-polarity, surge, and output short-circuit protection are specified. The E2E-X2B1T8-M1 is part of M8 PNP proximity sensors from Omron industrial sensing products.

The Omron E2E-X2B1T8-M1 Proximity Sensor uses a compact M8 shielded sensing format with a 2 mm inductive detection range and a 0 to 1.6 mm setting distance. DC 3-wire PNP output provides NO switching through an M12 connector, with operation from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified target, using an iron 8 × 8 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency reaches 1,500 Hz. The one-output configuration supports up to 200 mA, while supply reverse-polarity protection, surge suppression, output short-circuit protection, and output reverse polarity are specified. Standard I/O and IO-Link modes also provide separate operation and communication indication.
Operating and storage conditions for the E2E-X2B1T8-M1 extend from -40 to 85°C. IEC 60529 IP67 and ISO 20653 are listed for environmental protection. The M8 diameter supports restricted mounting locations, while shielded construction permits installation close to surrounding metal. Its M12 connector makes cable removal possible without disturbing the sensor body, and the 1,500 Hz response frequency suits repetitive detection cycles. SUS303 stainless steel, PBT, nickel-plated brass, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are specified among the materials. For an E2E alternative using a larger M12 body and a 5 mm sensing range with pre-wired cable, see E2E-X5MB1DL12 2M.
