Omron E2E-X6MB1D8-M5 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X6MB1D8-M5 features an M8 unshielded short-body format with 6 mm sensing and DC 3-wire PNP normally open switching. Its setting range covers 0 to 4.8 mm, and an M8 3-pin connector supports compact removable wiring. Supply voltage is specified from 10 to 30 VDC, with an 800 Hz response frequency. An iron 18 × 18 × 1 mm standard object is listed for ferrous metals, while IP67 and ISO 20653 are specified. The E2E-X6MB1D8-M5 is included in the E2E NEXT Series, while similar compact options can be checked through the broader M8 PNP proximity sensor range available among sensor products from Omron Industrial Sensors for machine sensing.

The Omron E2E-X6MB1D8-M5 Proximity Sensor uses an M8 unshielded short-body housing with 6 mm sensing and a 0 to 4.8 mm setting range. Its DC 3-wire PNP output operates as normally open through an M8 3-pin connector. Supply voltage covers 10 to 30 VDC, while response frequency is 800 Hz. Ferrous metals are specified with an iron 18 × 18 × 1 mm standard object. The rated output current is 100 mA max. Power supply reverse polarity, output reverse polarity, surge, and output short-circuit protection are included. Stainless steel, PBT, nickel-plated brass, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are used across the listed material details. The orange operation indicator shows switching status, while the green communication indicator is used when IO-Link communication is active.
For compact installations requiring an Omron M8 proximity sensor with unshielded 6 mm sensing, PNP NO switching, and three-pin connection, the relevant model is the E2E-X6MB1D8-M5. Operating and storage temperatures range from -25 to 70°C, while IEC 60529 IP67 and ISO 20653 are specified. The electrical format also suits Omron PNP proximity sensor, Omron 6 mm proximity sensor, and Omron M8 connector proximity sensor requirements. For a related short-body PNP NO version with the same 6 mm sensing distance and a pre-wired 2 m cable, see E2E-X6MB1T8 2M.
