Omron E2E-X6MC2L8-M3 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X6MC2L8-M3 uses an M8 unshielded long-body design with 6 mm sensing and DC 3-wire PNP normally closed switching. The setting range extends from 0 to 4.8 mm, and an M8 4-pin connector provides removable wiring. Supply voltage covers 10 to 30 VDC, while the specified response frequency is 800 Hz. Its long threaded body and four-pin connector make the format suitable where additional mounting length and compact connector wiring are required. The E2E-X6MC2L8-M3 forms part of the E2E NEXT Series, while similar NC versions can be reviewed through the broader M8 PNP proximity sensor range available from Omron Sensor Range for automation use.

The Omron E2E-X6MC2L8-M3 Proximity Sensor uses an M8 unshielded long-body housing with 6 mm sensing and a setting range from 0 to 4.8 mm. Its specified DC 3-wire PNP output operates as normally closed through an M8 4-pin connector. Supply voltage covers 10 to 30 VDC, while response frequency is 800 Hz. Ferrous metals are specified using an iron 18 × 18 × 1 mm standard object. Rated output current is 100 mA max. Supply reverse polarity, output reverse polarity, surge suppression, and output short-circuit protection are listed. Stainless steel, PBT, nickel-plated brass, zinc-plated iron, and PVC appear among the material details. Operation and communication status are shown through orange and green indicators.
For an Omron M8 proximity sensor requiring unshielded 6 mm sensing, PNP NC switching, long-body mounting, and a four-pin connector, the applicable version is the E2E-X6MC2L8-M3. Operating and storage temperatures extend from -25 to 70°C, with IEC 60529 IP67 and ISO 20653 specified. The format is also relevant to Omron PNP proximity sensor, Omron M8 connector proximity sensor, and Omron long body proximity sensor requirements.
