The Omron E2EG-X10C1 is a shielded M30 cylindrical inductive proximity sensor with a 10 mm sensing range and NPN normally-open output, rated IP67 for wet environments. It operates on 12 to 24 VDC drawing 13 mA max, and the yellow LED indicator confirms target detection. The -40 to 70°C range covers most machine-tool and conveyor installations.
Sourcing & lifecycle note
This sensor carries a mature lifecycle stage in the Omron catalog, meaning it remains available through distribution but is not a current design-in recommendation.
Mounting notes
Shielded flush mounting allows the M30 barrel to sit flush in metal — no extra spacing for sensing dead zone. The 43.7 mm length fits standard bracket kits. Wire NPN NO output to the PLC sinking input; common the blue and black supply lines. IP67 holds for hose-down areas.
