Omron E2E-X8MB1T12-M1 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X8MB1T12-M1 extends M12 detection to 8 mm using an unshielded short-body arrangement designed for industrial metal sensing. Its setting distance is 0 to 6.4 mm, and the DC 3-wire PNP output provides NO switching through an M12 connector. The unit operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metals are specified as detectable targets, using an iron 24 × 24 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 800 Hz, while the one-output version supports up to 200 mA. SIO and IO-Link indication are also specified. The E2E-X8MB1T12-M1 is positioned among 8 mm PNP proximity sensors from Omron smart sensing solutions.

The Omron E2E-X8MB1T12-M1 Proximity Sensor uses an M12 unshielded short-body configuration to deliver an 8 mm sensing range and a 0 to 6.4 mm setting distance. It provides DC 3-wire PNP NO switching through an M12 connector and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metals are the specified detection targets, paired with an iron 24 × 24 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 800 Hz. The one-output configuration supports up to 200 mA, while supply reverse-polarity protection, surge suppression, output short-circuit protection, and output reverse polarity are specified. SIO and IO-Link modes provide operation and communication indication.
Operating and storage conditions for the E2E-X8MB1T12-M1 extend from -40 to 85°C. IEC 60529 IP67 and ISO 20653 protection specifications are listed. Its unshielded design provides the stated 8 mm target clearance, while the short M12 body helps reduce installation depth. Connector-based wiring supports quick sensor replacement without replacing the cable. Nickel-plated brass, PBT, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are specified among the materials. PNP NO operation provides a sourcing output for compatible controllers. For an E2E alternative with M18 construction, 5 mm sensing, NPN NC switching, and a pre-wired cable, see E2E-X5C218 2M.
