Omron E2E-X8MB2L12-M1 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X8MB2L12-M1 uses an M12 unshielded long-body format with 8 mm sensing and DC 3-wire PNP normally closed output. Its setting range runs from 0 to 6.4 mm, while an M12 connector allows removable cable connection. The sensor works from 10 to 30 VDC with an 800 Hz response frequency. This version provides an extended threaded body together with detachable wiring for applications requiring easier cable replacement. The E2E-X8MB2L12-M1 is included in the E2E NEXT Series, while other connector-based versions can be reviewed through the broader 8 mm PNP proximity sensor range available across products from Omron Industrial Sensors for machine sensing.

The Omron E2E-X8MB2L12-M1 Proximity Sensor uses an M12 unshielded long-body housing with 8 mm sensing and a 0 to 6.4 mm setting range. Its DC 3-wire PNP circuit provides normally closed output through an M12 connector. The sensor operates from 10 to 30 VDC with an 800 Hz response frequency. Ferrous metals are referenced with an iron 24 × 24 × 1 mm standard object. Rated current reaches 200 mA max. for 1-output operation and 100 mA max. for the listed 2-output mode. Power supply reverse polarity, output reverse polarity, surge, and output short-circuit protection are specified. Nickel-plated brass, PBT, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are listed among the material details.
For an Omron M12 proximity sensor requiring unshielded 8 mm sensing, PNP NC switching, long-body mounting, and removable connector wiring, the applicable model is the E2E-X8MB2L12-M1. Operating and storage temperatures extend from -40 to 85°C, while IEC 60529 IP67 and ISO 20653 are listed. The same format also suits Omron PNP proximity sensor, Omron M12 connector proximity sensor, and Omron long body proximity sensor requirements. For a related long-body version using a fixed pre-wired 2 m cable, see E2E-X8MB2L12 2M.
