The E2E-X5B1TL18 2M: M18 shielded body fits a standard 18mm hole — no extra clearance needed around metal. The 5mm sensing distance lets you flush-mount this sensor in brackets or machine frames. PNP-NO three-wire output matches most PLC sinking inputs. Supply range 10 to 30 VDC works on 12V or 24V control power. The 2-metre cable is factory-attached; no connector to lose or seal. Rated IP67 and IP69K, so it survives steam cleaning and high-pressure washdown. Response frequency 600 Hz keeps up with fast-picking cycles. Operating temperature -40°C to 85°C covers cold stores and ovens.
