Omron E2E-X5E1-M1 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X5E1-M1 pairs an M18 cylindrical body with a 5 mm sensing range for shielded inductive metal detection. Its adjustable setting distance is 0 to 4 mm, while DC 3-wire NPN NO switching is provided through an M12 connector. The sensor operates from 12 to 24 VDC and uses an iron 18 × 18 × 1 mm standard sensing target for ferrous metal. Response frequency is 0.6 kHz, and control output is rated 200 mA max. A red operation indicator is included with load short-circuit, surge, and reverse-polarity protection. The E2E-X5E1-M1 belongs to M18 NPN proximity sensors from Omron industrial sensor solutions.

The Omron E2E-X5E1-M1 Proximity Sensor combines an M18 cylindrical body with a shielded 5 mm sensing distance and a 0 to 4 mm setting range. DC 3-wire NPN output provides NO switching through an M12 connector, while the operating supply is 12 to 24 VDC. Ferrous metal is specified as the sensing target, paired with an iron 18 × 18 × 1 mm standard object. Response frequency is 0.6 kHz, and control output is rated 200 mA max. A red operation indicator is provided. Electrical protection includes load short-circuit protection, surge suppression, and reverse-polarity protection for industrial control wiring.
Operating and storage conditions for the E2E-X5E1-M1 cover -40 to 85°C without icing or condensation. IEC 60529 IP67 protection is specified. The M18 shielded arrangement supports installation close to surrounding metal and provides the stated 5 mm sensing range. Its M12 connector enables detachable field cabling for replacement or maintenance. Nickel-plated brass, PBT, and zinc-plated iron are listed among the construction materials. NPN NO switching provides a sinking normally open signal for compatible control inputs. For another E2E sensor using a compact M8 body, 1.5 mm sensing range, and PNP output, see E2E-X1R5F1-M1.
