Omron E2E-X2B1T8-M5 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X2B1T8-M5 is a compact M8 shielded inductive proximity sensor with a 2 mm sensing distance, 0 to 1.6 mm setting distance, and short-body construction. It uses a DC 3-wire PNP output with NO operation through a 3-pin M8 connector and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metals are the specified detectable targets, with an iron 8 × 8 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 1,500 Hz, while the one-output model is rated up to 200 mA. Standard I/O and IO-Link communication indicators are also specified. The E2E-X2B1T8-M5 is included among M8 PNP proximity sensors from Omron automation products.

The Omron E2E-X2B1T8-M5 Proximity Sensor uses a compact M8 shielded inductive sensing body with a 2 mm sensing distance, a 0 to 1.6 mm setting distance, and short-body construction. It provides a DC 3-wire PNP output with NO operation through a 3-pin M8 connector and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metals are the specified detectable targets, with an iron 8 × 8 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 1,500 Hz. The one-output version is rated up to 200 mA, while power-supply reverse polarity, surge, output short-circuit, and output reverse-polarity protection are specified. Standard I/O and IO-Link communication indicators are also provided.
Operating and storage conditions for the E2E-X2B1T8-M5 cover -40 to 85°C. IEC 60529 IP67 and ISO 20653 are listed among the protection specifications. The compact M8 shielded format is suited to restricted installation areas while maintaining the stated 2 mm sensing distance. Its 3-pin M8 connector allows detachable wiring, and the 1,500 Hz response frequency supports relatively fast target detection. SUS303 stainless steel, PBT, nickel-plated brass, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are specified among the construction materials. IO-Link communication mode provides additional communication-status indication compared with standard I/O operation. For another E2E proximity sensor using AC 2-wire operation, see E2E-X2Y1 2M.
