Omron E2E-X4C112 2M Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X4C112 2M is configured for 4 mm metal detection using an M12 shielded sensing head and a compact short-body profile. A DC 3-wire NPN output provides NO switching through a pre-wired 2 m cable, with operation from 10 to 30 VDC. Its adjustable setting distance is 0 to 3.2 mm, while ferrous metal is detected using an iron 12 × 12 × 1 mm standard sensing object. The response frequency is 1,000 Hz, and the one-output configuration supports up to 200 mA. Reverse-polarity, surge, and output short-circuit protection are specified. The E2E-X4C112 2M sits within M12 NPN inductive sensors from Omron advanced sensing products.

The Omron E2E-X4C112 2M Proximity Sensor is built around a short M12 body, a shielded 4 mm sensing range, and a 0 to 3.2 mm setting distance. It uses a DC 3-wire NPN output with NO operation through a pre-wired 2 m cable and works from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified detectable object, using an iron 12 × 12 × 1 mm standard sensing target. Response frequency is rated at 1,000 Hz. The one-output configuration supports up to 200 mA, with protection provided against supply reverse polarity, surge conditions, output short circuits, and output reverse polarity. SIO and IO-Link modes provide visible operation and communication status.
Environmental specifications for the E2E-X4C112 include IEC 60529 IP67 and ISO 20653. Its shielded sensing arrangement supports installation near surrounding metal, while the compact body minimizes the rear mounting space required inside machines and fixtures. The 2 m fixed cable can be routed directly to control terminals, eliminating a detachable connection at the sensing head. Nickel-plated brass, PBT, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are listed among the stated materials. NPN NO switching provides a sinking normally open signal, while the 1,000 Hz response frequency supports repetitive metal detection. No specific alternative model is listed in the supplied comparison data for this sensor.
