The Omron E2E-X7D1-M1GJ 0.3M is a shielded inductive proximity sensor from the E2E series with a 7 mm sensing range. It outputs a DC 2-wire normally open signal, making it a straightforward replacement for applications requiring a simple on/off presence detection on ferrous targets. The 0.3 m PVC cable is pre-wired to an M12 connector, ready for panel wiring.
What the ratings mean for fit
Shielded construction allows flush mounting in metal without derating the 7 mm sensing distance — a common requirement in tight machine frames. The DC 2-wire design simplifies wiring (only two conductors) but be aware that darkness current and voltage drop across the sensor may affect compatibility with certain PLC inputs. Verify the input impedance and minimum load current of your controller.
