Omron E2E-X2B212 2M Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X2B212 2M provides 2 mm inductive sensing in an M12 shielded short-body design with DC 3-wire PNP normally closed output. Its connection is through a pre-wired 2 m cable, with a usable setting range from 0 to 1.6 mm. Operating voltage is 10 to 30 VDC and response frequency reaches 1,500 Hz. In the E2E NEXT Series, the Omron E2E-X2B212 2M represents the PNP NC cable version. Buyers comparing switching logic and mounting sizes can review M12 proximity sensors across the broader product range offered by Omron Sensor Products.

The Omron E2E-X2B212 2M Proximity Sensor uses an M12 shielded short-body housing with a 2 mm sensing distance and a setting range from 0 to 1.6 mm. DC 3-wire PNP normally closed switching is supplied through a pre-wired 2 m cable. The sensor works from 10 to 30 VDC and supports a 1,500 Hz response frequency. Ferrous metal is specified with an iron 12 × 12 × 1 mm standard object. Current ratings reach 200 mA max. for 1-output versions and 100 mA max. for 2-output versions. Reverse polarity, surge, and output short-circuit safeguards are included.
Where an Omron M12 proximity sensor requires short-body mounting, PNP NC switching, and fixed cable wiring, the corresponding configuration is the E2E-X2B212. Operating and storage temperatures extend from -40 to 85°C, while IP67 under IEC 60529 and ISO 20653 are specified. This Omron PNP proximity sensor provides 2 mm sensing together with a 1,500 Hz response frequency. For the same M12 body size with normally open switching, users can compare the Omron E2E-X2B1T12 2M.
