Omron E2E-X8MC2L8-M1 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X8MC2L8-M1 uses an M8 unshielded long-body design with 8 mm sensing and DC 3-wire NPN normally closed output. The setting range covers 0 to 6 mm, while an M12 connector provides removable cable connection. Supply voltage extends from 10 to 30 VDC with a 500 Hz response frequency. The compact M8 sensing body and larger connector interface support applications requiring extended mounting length with accessible wiring. The E2E-X8MC2L8-M1 belongs to the E2E NEXT Series, while comparable long-body versions can be explored through the broader M8 NPN proximity sensor range offered by Omron Industrial Sensing Products for automation use.

The Omron E2E-X8MC2L8-M1 Proximity Sensor uses an M8 unshielded long-body housing with 8 mm sensing and a setting range from 0 to 6 mm. DC 3-wire NPN output operates as normally closed through an M12 connector. The sensor accepts 10 to 30 VDC and provides 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. Supply reverse polarity, output reverse polarity, surge suppression, and output short-circuit protection are included. Stainless steel, PBT, nickel-plated brass, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are listed among the material details. The long threaded body supports additional mounting depth while retaining removable connector wiring.
For an Omron M8 proximity sensor requiring unshielded 8 mm sensing, NPN NC switching, long-body mounting, and an M12 connector, the relevant model is the E2E-X8MC2L8-M1. Operating and storage temperatures cover -25 to 70°C, while IEC 60529 IP67 and ISO 20653 are specified. Its format also fits Omron NPN proximity sensor, Omron M12 connector proximity sensor, and Omron long body proximity sensor requirements. For a related long-body NPN NC version using an M8 4-pin connector, see E2E-X8MC2L8-M3.
