Omron E2KQ-X10ME1 2M Proximity Sensor
Omron E2KQ-X10ME1 2M is an unshielded capacitive proximity sensor with a 10 mm sensing distance and DC 3-wire NPN output with NO operation. It uses a pre-wired 2 m cable and operates from 12 to 24 VDC. Conductors and dielectrics are the specified detectable objects, with a 50 × 50 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 35 Hz, current consumption is 15 mA max., control-output current is 100 mA, and differential travel ranges from 4% to 20% of sensing distance. A red detection indicator, reverse-polarity protection, surge suppression, and IP66 protection are specified. The E2KQ-X10ME1 2M is listed among capacitive proximity sensors from Omron industrial sensors.

The Omron E2KQ-X10ME1 2M Proximity Sensor uses an unshielded capacitive sensing configuration with a 10 mm sensing distance. It provides a DC 3-wire NPN output with NO operation through a pre-wired 2 m cable and operates from 12 to 24 VDC. Conductors and dielectrics are the specified detectable objects, with a 50 × 50 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 35 Hz, current consumption is 15 mA max., control-output current is 100 mA, and differential travel ranges from 4% to 20% of sensing distance. A red detection indicator is provided, together with reverse-polarity protection and surge suppression.
Operating conditions for the E2KQ-X10ME1 are -10 to 55°C, while storage extends from -25 to 55°C without icing or condensation. Operating and storage humidity is 35% to 85%. Fluorine resin and vinyl chloride are listed among the construction materials, and IP66 is the specified protection level. The 10 mm capacitive sensing distance remains paired with NPN NO switching and the pre-wired 2 m connection. No separate setting-distance value is provided in the supplied row, so the nominal sensing distance is retained without an added adjustment range. For another Omron proximity sensor using a separate-amplifier format and shielded sensing head, see E2C-CR8A 3M.
