Omron TL-W5MD1 5M Proximity Sensor
Omron TL-W5MD1 5M is a flat inductive, unshielded proximity sensor with a 5 mm sensing distance and a 0 to 4 mm setting distance. It uses a DC 2-wire NO output with a pre-wired 5 m cable and operates from a 12 to 24 VDC power supply. Ferrous metal is the specified detectable object, using an iron 18 × 18 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 500 Hz, control-output load current is 3 to 100 mA, and differential travel is 10% max. of sensing distance. Red and green indicators provide operation and setting indication, with load short-circuit protection, surge suppression, and IP67 protection specified. The TL-W5MD1 5M is included among flat inductive proximity sensors from Omron sensing products.

The Omron TL-W5MD1 5M Proximity Sensor uses a flat inductive, unshielded sensing arrangement with a 5 mm sensing distance and a 0 to 4 mm setting distance. It provides a DC 2-wire NO output through a pre-wired 5 m cable and operates from 12 to 24 VDC. Ferrous metal is specified as the detectable object, with an iron 18 × 18 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 500 Hz, control-output load current is 3 to 100 mA, and differential travel is 10% max. of sensing distance. A red operation indicator and green setting indicator are provided. Load short-circuit protection and surge suppression are included in the specified protection functions.
Operating and storage limits for the TL-W5MD1 are -25 to 70°C without icing or condensation, with humidity from 35% to 95%. Heat-resistant ABS is listed as the construction material, while IP67 is the stated degree of protection for this proximity sensor under the stated industrial operating conditions. The 5 m pre-wired connection accompanies the DC 2-wire NO output and 5 mm unshielded sensing configuration. For another TL-W model using the same 5 mm sensing distance and 5 m cable but a DC 3-wire NPN NO output, see TL-W5MC1 5M.
