Omron E2E-X4C312 2M Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X4C312 2M provides 4 mm sensing in an M12 shielded short-body format with DC 3-wire NPN NO+NC switching. A pre-wired 2 m cable supports direct connection, while the setting range covers 0 to 3.2 mm. Supply voltage is 10 to 30 VDC and response frequency reaches 1,000 Hz. The E2E-X4C312 2M is part of the E2E NEXT Series, with similar dual-output models available through the broader M12 NPN proximity sensor range offered among sensing products from Omron Sensor Products.

The Omron E2E-X4C312 2M Proximity Sensor provides 4 mm sensing from an M12 shielded short-body housing with a setting range of 0 to 3.2 mm. Its DC 3-wire NPN output provides NO+NC switching through a pre-wired 2 m cable. The sensor operates from 10 to 30 VDC at a 1,000 Hz response frequency. Ferrous metal is specified with an iron 12 × 12 × 1 mm standard object. Rated current reaches 200 mA max. for 1-output models and 100 mA max. for 2-output models. Reverse polarity, surge, and short-circuit protection are included.
For an Omron M12 proximity sensor requiring compact mounting with NPN NO+NC switching and fixed wiring, the corresponding configuration is the E2E-X4C312. IEC 60529 IP67 and ISO 20653 are specified, while nickel-plated brass, PBT, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are listed among the materials. The specification also supports an Omron NPN proximity sensor, Omron NO+NC proximity sensor, and Omron 4 mm proximity sensor. For a related M12 shielded NPN NO+NC model with long-body construction, see E2E-X4C3L12 2M.
