Omron E2E-X8MB2L8-M5 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X8MB2L8-M5 uses an M8 unshielded long-body design with 8 mm sensing and DC 3-wire PNP normally closed output. The setting range covers 0 to 6 mm, while an M8 3-pin connector provides a compact connection method. The sensor operates from 10 to 30 VDC with a 500 Hz response frequency. Its extended threaded body and three-pin interface offer a practical option where space is limited around the connection point. The E2E-X8MB2L8-M5 sits within the E2E NEXT Series, while related connector styles can be viewed through the wider M8 NC proximity sensor range available from Omron Sensing Products for automation systems.

The Omron E2E-X8MB2L8-M5 Proximity Sensor uses an M8 unshielded long-body housing with 8 mm sensing and a 0 to 6 mm setting range. Its DC 3-wire PNP output provides normally closed switching through an M8 3-pin connector. The sensor operates from 10 to 30 VDC with a 500 Hz response frequency. Ferrous metals are referenced using an iron 24 × 24 × 1 mm standard object. Rated output current is 50 mA max. Reverse supply polarity, reverse output polarity, surge, and output short-circuit protection are specified. Stainless steel, PBT, nickel-plated brass, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are included among the material details. Operation and communication status are shown through orange and green indicators.
For an Omron M8 proximity sensor requiring unshielded 8 mm sensing, PNP NC switching, long-body mounting, and compact three-pin wiring, the specified model is the E2E-X8MB2L8-M5. Operating and storage temperatures extend from -25 to 70°C, while IEC 60529 IP67 and ISO 20653 are listed. This version also matches Omron PNP proximity sensor, Omron 8 mm proximity sensor, and Omron M8 connector proximity sensor requirements. For a related long-body PNP NC model using an M8 4-pin connector, see E2E-X8MB2L8-M3.
