Product details

Tight Footprint, Fast Switching

The Omron E2E-CR8C1 is a compact 4mm-diameter inductive proximity sensor rated for 0.8mm sensing distance on ferrous metal targets, with a 3 kHz response frequency suited for high-speed counting or position detection. Runs on 12-24 VDC (10-30 VDC range) and draws 17 mA max, making it a light load for a 24V supply bus.

Not a Capacitive Swap

This sensor detects ferrous metal only, with a set distance of 0 to 0.5 mm. It will not work as a drop-in replacement for the E2KQ-X10ME1 capacitive sensor, which picks up non-ferrous materials at longer range.

Frequently asked questions

What is the sensing distance of this sensor?

The sensing distance is 0.8 mm ±15% on a standard iron target 5 × 5 × 1 mm.

What power supply voltage does it require?

It operates on 12 to 24 VDC (allowable range 10 to 30 VDC) with ripple no more than 10%.

Can the E2E-CR8C1 replace an E2KQ-X10ME1 capacitive sensor?

No, they are functionally different. The E2E-CR8C1 is an inductive sensor for ferrous metal only, while the E2KQ-X10ME1 is a capacitive sensor that can detect non-ferrous materials and has a longer sensing range.
