The Omron E2E-X4C2L8-M1 Proximity Sensor uses an M8 shielded long-body housing with a 4 mm sensing distance and a 0 to 3 mm setting range. DC 3-wire NPN normally closed switching is connected through an M12 connector. The sensor operates from 10 to 30 VDC with a 700 Hz response frequency. Ferrous metals are specified with an iron 12 × 12 × 1 mm standard object. The listed 1-output current rating is 50 mA max. Reverse supply polarity, output reverse polarity, surge, and output short-circuit protection are provided.
Where an Omron M8 proximity sensor requires long threaded mounting with NPN NC output and detachable M12 wiring, the relevant version is the E2E-X4C2L8-M1. Operating temperature is specified from -25 to 60°C and storage temperature from -25 to 70°C, together with IEC 60529 IP67 and ISO 20653. Nickel-plated brass, PBT, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are included among the materials. The configuration also supports an Omron NPN proximity sensor, Omron M12 connector proximity sensor, and Omron 4 mm proximity sensor. For another related M8 proximity model with NPN NC switching and a different connector arrangement, see E2E-X4C2L8-M3.
