Omron E2E-X2MC1L8-M5 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X2MC1L8-M5 uses an M8 unshielded long-body format with 2 mm sensing and DC 3-wire NPN normally open switching. Its 0 to 1.6 mm setting range is supported by an M8 3-pin connector for removable cable wiring. Supply voltage is 10 to 30 VDC and response frequency is rated at 1,000 Hz. Protection is provided against reverse polarity, surge, and output short circuit. The E2E-X2MC1L8-M5 belongs to the E2E NEXT Series and extends the available 2 mm proximity sensor range offered through other sensing products from Omron Sensor Products.

The Omron E2E-X2MC1L8-M5 Proximity Sensor uses an M8 unshielded long-body design with a 2 mm sensing distance and 0 to 1.6 mm setting range. DC 3-wire NPN normally open switching is provided through an M8 3-pin connector. The sensor operates from 10 to 30 VDC with a 1,000 Hz response frequency. Ferrous metals are specified with an iron 8 × 8 × 1 mm standard object. Rated current reaches 200 mA max. for 1-output models and 50 mA max. for 2-output models. Supply polarity, output polarity, surge, and short-circuit protection are included.
For applications requiring an Omron M8 proximity sensor with long-body mounting, NPN NO switching, and a 3-pin connector, the applicable configuration is the E2E-X2MC1L8-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. The specification also covers an Omron NPN proximity sensor, Omron 2 mm proximity sensor, and Omron unshielded proximity sensor. For a related M8 long-body NPN NO model with a 4-pin connector, see E2E-X2MC1L8-M3.
