Omron TL-N5ME1 2M Proximity Sensor
Omron TL-N5ME1 2M is a rectangular unshielded proximity sensor 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, using a pre-wired 2 m cable and a 12 to 24 VDC supply. Ferrous metal is the specified detectable object, with an iron 30 × 30 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 500 Hz, differential travel is 15% max. of sensing distance, and control-output load current reaches 100 mA at 12 VDC or 200 mA at 24 VDC. A red detection indicator and IP67 protection are specified. The TL-N5ME1 belongs to the rectangular proximity sensor category within the Omron industrial automation sensor range.

The Omron TL-N5ME1 2M Proximity Sensor combines a rectangular unshielded body with a 5 mm sensing distance and a 0 to 4 mm setting distance. Its output is DC 3-wire NPN with NO operation, and connection is provided through a pre-wired 2 m cable. The supply range is 12 to 24 VDC. Ferrous metal is specified as the detectable object, with an iron 30 × 30 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 500 Hz and differential travel is 15% max. of sensing distance. Current consumption is 8 mA max. at 12 VDC and 15 mA max. at 24 VDC. Control-output load current reaches 100 mA at 12 VDC or 200 mA at 24 VDC, and a red detection indicator is provided.
Reverse-polarity protection and a surge suppressor form the listed protection circuit. Operating and storage conditions are -25 to 70°C without icing or condensation and 35% to 95% humidity without condensation. Heat-resistant ABS is specified as the material, and the model is rated IP67. These values identify the TL-N5ME1 2M as a rectangular 5 mm NPN NO proximity sensor with a 2 m cable. For a related TL-N version that keeps the same rectangular family and NPN output concept while changing the switching state, see TL-N5ME2 2M.
