Omron E2E-X5ME1-M1 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X5ME1-M1 is an M12 unshielded inductive proximity sensor with a 5 mm sensing distance, 0 to 4 mm setting distance, and DC 3-wire NPN NO output. It uses an M12 connector and operates from 12 to 24 VDC. The sensor is specified for ferrous-metal detection with an iron 15 × 15 × 1 mm standard sensing object, 0.4 kHz response frequency, 13 mA max. current consumption, and 10% max. differential travel. A red operation indicator is provided, with load short-circuit, surge, and reverse-polarity protection. IP67 protection is also specified. The E2E-X5ME1-M1 belongs to the Proximity sensor range from Omron industrial sensors.

The Omron E2E-X5ME1-M1 Proximity Sensor uses an M12 unshielded inductive sensing format with a 5 mm sensing distance and a 0 to 4 mm setting distance. Its electrical configuration is DC 3-wire NPN with NO operation, connected through an M12 connector and supplied from 12 to 24 VDC. The standard sensing object is iron measuring 15 × 15 × 1 mm, while ferrous metal is the specified detectable object. Response frequency is 0.4 kHz, current consumption is 13 mA max., and differential travel is 10% max. of sensing distance. A red operation indicator is included, together with load short-circuit protection, surge suppression, and reverse-polarity protection.
The model is specified for operation and storage from -40 to 85°C without icing or condensation and for 35% to 95% RH without condensation. Temperature influence is ±15% max. of sensing distance at 23°C across -40 to 85°C and ±10% max. across -25 to 70°C. Insulation resistance is 50 MΩ min. at 500 VDC, dielectric strength is 1000 VAC for 1 minute, and voltage influence is ±1% max. within rated voltage ±15%. Degree of protection is IP67 in the supplied specification. For an E2E model using an M12 connector with a larger 10 mm sensing distance, see E2E-X10MF1-M1.
