Omron E2E-X2C1L8-M1 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X2C1L8-M1 provides 2 mm sensing from an M8 shielded long-body housing with DC 3-wire NPN normally open switching. An M12 connector is specified for detachable wiring, and the setting range extends from 0 to 1.6 mm. It operates from 10 to 30 VDC with a 1,500 Hz response frequency. As an E2E NEXT Series model, the Omron E2E-X2C1L8-M1 provides a compact long-body connector arrangement. Buyers reviewing small threaded models can explore M8 inductive proximity sensors across the wider selection offered by Omron Sensors.

The Omron E2E-X2C1L8-M1 Proximity Sensor provides 2 mm sensing through an M8 shielded long-body structure with a setting range from 0 to 1.6 mm. Its DC 3-wire NPN normally open output uses an M12 connector for detachable wiring. Operating voltage is 10 to 30 VDC and response frequency is specified at 1,500 Hz. Ferrous metal is referenced using an iron 8 × 8 × 1 mm standard object. Rated current reaches 200 mA max. for single-output versions and 50 mA max. for two-output versions. Reverse polarity, surge, and output short-circuit safeguards are provided.
When buyers require an Omron M8 proximity sensor with long threaded mounting, NPN NO switching, and connector-based wiring, the specified model is the E2E-X2C1L8-M1. Operating and storage temperatures extend from -40 to 85°C, together with IP67 according to IEC 60529 and ISO 20653. Among Omron NPN proximity sensors, this version provides compact 2 mm sensing with removable wiring. For a PNP model with a longer 6 mm range, compare the Omron E2E-X6MB1D8-M5.
