Omron E2E-X2E1-M1 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X2E1-M1 is configured for precise 2 mm metal detection in a cylindrical M12 body where a compact shielded sensing arrangement is required. It offers a 0 to 1.6 mm setting distance and provides DC 3-wire NPN NO switching through an M12 connector. The operating supply is 12 to 24 VDC. Ferrous metal is specified as the detectable object, with an iron 12 × 12 × 1 mm standard target. Response frequency is 1.5 kHz, while control output is rated 200 mA max. A red operation indicator is included together with load short-circuit, surge, and reverse-polarity protection. The E2E-X2E1-M1 is part of 2 mm NPN proximity sensors from Omron industrial sensing solutions.

The Omron E2E-X2E1-M1 Proximity Sensor provides precise short-range detection through a cylindrical M12 sensing body with shielded mounting, a 2 mm sensing distance, and a 0 to 1.6 mm setting range. It delivers DC 3-wire NPN NO switching through an M12 connector and operates from 12 to 24 VDC. Ferrous metal is specified as the detectable object, paired with an iron 12 × 12 × 1 mm standard target. Response frequency reaches 1.5 kHz, while control output is rated 200 mA max. A red operation indicator is provided together with load short-circuit protection, surge suppression, and reverse-polarity protection.
Operating and storage conditions for the E2E-X2E1-M1 extend from -40 to 85°C without icing or condensation. IEC 60529 IP67 protection is specified. Its shielded M12 construction allows the sensor face to be mounted close to surrounding metal while retaining the stated 2 mm sensing range. The M12 connector enables cable removal during servicing without disturbing sensor alignment. Nickel-plated brass, PBT, and zinc-plated iron are included among the material details. The 1.5 kHz response frequency is suitable for repetitive metal detection where relatively fast switching is required. No dedicated comparison model is included in the supplied source for this configuration.
