The Omron E2E-S05S12-MC-C2 Small-diameter Proximity Sensor uses an M5 shielded body with a 1.2 mm sensing distance and a setting range from 0 to 0.84 mm. DC 3-wire NPN normally closed output is provided through an M8 3-pin connector. The sensor operates from 10 to 30 VDC with a 4 kHz response frequency, while ferrous metal is specified using an iron 4 × 4 × 1 mm standard object. Control output is rated at 100 mA max. with a 2 V max. voltage drop. Output reverse polarity, power supply reverse polarity, surge, and load short-circuit protection are included. The shielded M5 sensing structure provides a compact threaded option with a shorter sensing range than the unshielded 3 mm versions.
For applications requiring an Omron M5 proximity sensor with shielded 1.2 mm sensing, NPN NC output, and compact M8 connector wiring, the relevant model is the E2E-S05S12-MC-C2. Operation and storage temperatures cover -25 to 70°C, together with IEC 60529 IP67 and an oil-resistant in-house rating. Its electrical arrangement also suits Omron NPN proximity sensor, Omron shielded proximity sensor, Omron small diameter proximity sensor, and Omron M8 connector proximity sensor requirements. The 4 kHz response frequency provides faster switching than the 2 kHz M5 unshielded versions in this group. For a related M5 shielded connector model using PNP NC output, see E2E-S05S12-MC-B2.
