Omron E2E-X5Y1-M1 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X5Y1-M1 is a cylindrical M18 shielded inductive proximity sensor with a 5 mm sensing distance and 0 to 4 mm setting distance. It uses an AC 2-wire NO output through an M12 connector and operates from 24 to 240 VAC. Ferrous metal is the specified detectable object, with an iron 18 × 18 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 25 Hz, while the control output range is 5 to 300 mA. A red operation indicator and surge suppressor are specified for this sensor. The E2E-X5Y1-M1 is part of M18 AC proximity sensors from Omron industrial sensing products.

The Omron E2E-X5Y1-M1 Proximity Sensor uses a cylindrical M18 shielded inductive sensing body with a 5 mm sensing distance and a 0 to 4 mm setting distance. It provides an AC 2-wire NO output through an M12 connector and operates from 24 to 240 VAC. Ferrous metal is the specified detectable object, with an iron 18 × 18 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 25 Hz, while the control output range is 5 to 300 mA. A red operation indicator is provided, and a surge suppressor is specified for circuit protection. The sensing body uses nickel-plated brass and PBT among the listed construction materials.
Operating and storage conditions for the E2E-X5Y1-M1 extend from -40 to 85°C without icing or condensation. IEC 60529 IP67 is specified for environmental protection. The shielded M18 construction supports installation close to surrounding metal, while the 5 mm sensing range is paired with AC 2-wire normally open switching. Its M12 connector enables detachable cabling during sensor replacement or servicing. Zinc-plated iron and PVC are also listed among the construction materials. This configuration is suited to industrial machines using AC control circuits where connector-based inductive detection is required.
