Omron E2E Series Inductive Barrel-Style Proximity Sensor, M5 x 0.5, 1.2 mm Detection, PNP Output, 10 → 30 V dc,

The E2E inductive proximity sensors are extremely small in diameter with 3mm, 4mm, 6.5 mm, M4 and M5 versions available. The stable long sensing distance of these sensors enables high performance for detection of ferrous metal even when the work flow is unsteady. The E2E series of proximity sensors have 4 indicator lamps on them in a 360 ° layout making it extremely easy to check the operation status.

High speed response enables sharp detection timing, 5 kHz max
Load short-circuit protection and output reverse polarity protection
Easy installation
LED indication

For spot-on control of automated machinery, try this proximity sensor from OMRON. Its response frequency of 4kHz makes it fast-acting with reliable repeat accuracy, so it's ideal for positioning the grabbing arms of industrial robots. It's an inductive type device that quickly picks up on the presence of ferrous metal without making physical contact, which minimises the risk of delicate components breaking. Short-circuit protection cuts down on the chance of damage caused by power faults. A low maximum current consumption of 10mA makes it an energy-efficient choice. As this sensor resists vibration and shock, you can rely on its superior performance in demanding industrial settings.

• Supplied pre-wired for convenient installation
• Insulated to reduce the risk of electric shocks
• Wear-resistant PVC cable sheath for longevity in harsh operating conditions
• Miniature M5 sensing head size for mounting in confined spaces

• Food and beverage industries
• Dairies
• Packaging facilities
• Distribution centres

Yes, the device is protected against reverse polarity, which minimises the risk of circuit damage as a result of wiring errors.
