Omron E2E-X2C28-M5 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X2C28-M5 uses an M8 shielded short-body format with a 2 mm sensing distance, DC 3-wire NPN normally closed output, and an M8 3-pin connector. Its setting range extends from 0 to 1.6 mm, while the operating supply is 10 to 30 VDC with a fast 1,500 Hz response frequency. Reverse-polarity, surge, output short-circuit, and output reverse-polarity protection are specified. The E2E-X2C28-M5 is part of the E2E NEXT Series and sits within the wider M8 proximity sensor range offered through Omron Sensors.

The Omron E2E-X2C28-M5 Proximity Sensor uses an M8 shielded short-body construction with a 2 mm sensing distance, 0 to 1.6 mm setting range, and DC 3-wire NPN normally closed output. An M8 3-pin connector provides the electrical connection, while the supply range is 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metals are specified as the sensing material, with an iron 8 × 8 × 1 mm standard object. The 1,500 Hz response frequency supports fast switching requirements. Output current is rated at 200 mA max. for 1-output models and 50 mA max. for 2-output models. Supply reverse polarity, output reverse polarity, surge, and output short-circuit protection are included.
For users comparing an Omron M8 proximity sensor with shielded mounting, NPN NC output, and compact connector wiring, a relevant configuration is the E2E-X2C28-M5. Operating and storage temperatures extend from -40 to 85°C, while IEC 60529 IP67 and ISO 20653 are specified. Stainless SUS303, PBT, nickel-plated brass, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are listed among the construction materials. Search requirements for an Omron NPN proximity sensor and Omron 2 mm proximity sensor are also covered by this specification. For a related PNP model using an M12 connector, see E2E-X2MF2-M1.
