The Omron E2E-X4MD1-M1G is an inductive proximity switch from the E2E/E2E NEXT series, built for metal-target detection in industrial automation. Unshielded construction means the sensing field extends beyond the sensor body — install it with a non-flush mount to avoid detection errors. The 4 mm sensing range covers standard part-present and position-checking applications on conveyor lines, transfer stations, and machine tools. Output is DC 2-wire, normally open. Two-wire sensors simplify cabling but carry a voltage drop across the load — factor that into your PLC input card's ON-state threshold. The M12 connector (IEC arrangement) mates with standard cordsets, no wire stripping needed at installation.

Frequently asked questions
What does unshielded mean for installation?
Unshielded means the sensing field projects beyond the sensor body. You must mount the sensor non-flush (with clearance around the head) to prevent false triggers from the mounting material.
