Fit & function at a glance
Omron E2E-X4C312 5M inductive sensor with M12 threaded cylindrical case. Sensing distance 4 mm. Output: NPN, 3-wire, selectable NO or NC. Supply 10-30 VDC. Termination: cable leads. Ingress protection is IP67 and IP69K. That means it handles dust immersion and high-pressure hot water washdown—suitable for food, beverage, or chemical plants. The nickel-plated brass body resists corrosion, but if you're in a harsh acid bath, you might want a plastic body; that's not this part. Response frequency is 1 kHz, good for moderate-speed counting.
