The Omron E2E-X1R5B1T8-M1 is a shielded M8 inductive proximity sensor from the E2E NEXT series, rated at 1.5 mm sensing distance with a PNP normally open output on a 3-wire DC configuration. Connection is via an M12 quick-disconnect, and the part supports IO-Link at 230.4 kbps for parameterization and diagnostics.
Peer Cross-Check: E2C-X1R5AH
The E2C-X1R5AH is a heat-resistant sensor head that requires a separate amplifier (E2C-AM4A or E2C-AK4A) and comes pre-wired with 3 m cable — a different system architecture. The E2E-X1R5B1T8-M1 is a self-contained M8 sensor with an M12 connector and IO-Link; it will not drop into a panel wired for the E2C head without replacing both the sensor and the amplifier wiring.
