Omron E2E-X5B1D18-M1 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X5B1D18-M1 delivers a 5 mm sensing range from an M18 shielded inductive body with short-body construction for reduced installation depth. It uses a DC 3-wire NPN NO output through an M12 connector and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. The setting range is 0 to 4 mm, and ferrous metals are detected using an iron 18 × 18 × 1 mm standard target. Response frequency is 600 Hz, while the one-output model supports up to 200 mA. Supply reverse-polarity protection, surge suppression, output short-circuit protection, and output reverse polarity are specified. The E2E-X5B1D18-M1 is part of M18 NPN proximity sensors from Omron industrial automation products.

The Omron E2E-X5B1D18-M1 Proximity Sensor uses an M18 shielded inductive sensing arrangement with a 5 mm detection distance, 0 to 4 mm setting range, and compact short-body construction. Its DC 3-wire NPN output switches in NO mode through an M12 connector and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metals are specified as detectable targets, with an iron 18 × 18 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 600 Hz. The one-output model supports up to 200 mA. Power-supply reverse polarity, surge suppression, output short-circuit protection, and output reverse-polarity protection are included. Standard I/O and IO-Link modes provide separate operation and communication indication.
Operating and storage conditions for the E2E-X5B1D18-M1 cover -40 to 85°C. IEC 60529 IP67 and ISO 20653 ratings are listed for environmental protection. The M18 shielded sensing face permits installation near surrounding metal, while short-body construction limits rear installation depth. Its M12 connector enables detachable field wiring during sensor replacement or maintenance. Nickel-plated brass, PBT, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are listed among the construction materials. The 5 mm sensing range is paired with NPN NO switching for compatible industrial control inputs, while the 600 Hz response frequency supports repeated detection in automated machinery. The supplied comparison information does not identify a dedicated alternative model for this configuration.
