Omron E2E-X2MC1L8-M3 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X2MC1L8-M3 offers a 2 mm sensing range from an M8 unshielded long-body construction with DC 3-wire NPN normally open output. Connection is through an M8 4-pin connector, while the setting distance extends from 0 to 1.6 mm. It operates from 10 to 30 VDC with a 1,000 Hz response frequency. Reverse-polarity, surge, and short-circuit safeguards are included. The E2E-X2MC1L8-M3 is an E2E NEXT Series model and can be reviewed with similar M8 inductive proximity sensors offered in the product selection from Omron Sensors.

The Omron E2E-X2MC1L8-M3 Proximity Sensor provides 2 mm sensing through an M8 unshielded long-body housing with a 0 to 1.6 mm setting range. Its DC 3-wire NPN output operates as normally open through an M8 4-pin connector. Supply voltage is 10 to 30 VDC and response frequency is rated at 1,000 Hz. Ferrous metals are specified with an iron 8 × 8 × 1 mm standard object. Current capacity reaches 200 mA max. for 1-output models and 50 mA max. for 2-output versions. Reverse-polarity, surge, and output short-circuit protection are specified.
Where an Omron M8 proximity sensor needs a long threaded body, NPN NO output, and four-pin connector wiring, the matching model is the E2E-X2MC1L8-M3. Operating and storage temperatures range from -40 to 85°C, with IP67 under IEC 60529 and ISO 20653 listed. Stainless SUS303, PBT, nickel-plated brass, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are included in the construction. It also fits searches for an Omron NPN proximity sensor and Omron 2 mm inductive proximity sensor. For a similar M8 configuration using PNP output, see E2E-X2B1DL8-M3.
