The E2E-X4B1D8 2M is an Omron E2E NEXT M8 shielded inductive proximity sensor rated for a 4 mm sensing distance on a standard ferrous target – per the datasheet conditions. Shielded construction means the sensor can be mounted flush in steel without derating the range, which saves panel space and avoids the need for a nonmetallic standoff. Output is PNP normally-open, drawing from a DC 3-wire supply. That configuration works with sinking (NPN) PLC inputs through a pull-up resistor or directly with sourcing inputs that expect a positive signal. The 2-meter PVC cable is fixed; shield termination is handled inside the housing. IO-Link at 38.4 kbps is available on this variant.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use the E2E-X4B1D8 2M as a drop-in replacement for an E2C-X1R5AH?
No. The E2C series uses a separate amplifier and different wiring architecture. While both are M8 form factor, the sensing range, connection method, and signal interface are incompatible without rework.
