Product details

8 mm unshielded, NPN NC, M12

The Omron E2EL-X8ME2-M1 is an unshielded threaded-barrel proximity sensor with an 8 mm sensing distance, NPN normally closed output, and an M12 4-pin connector. The NC output means the sensor switches off when a target is present — a common choice for fail-safe interlocks where loss of signal should indicate a detected object.

M12 connector and NC wiring

The M12 4-pin connector mates directly with standard M12 cordsets used on most PLC input modules and fieldbus blocks. Because the output is NPN (sinking), the load connects between the positive supply and the output — confirm the PLC input type is sinking-compatible before wiring.

Frequently asked questions

Is the E2EL-X8ME2-M1 normally closed or normally open?

The E2EL-X8ME2-M1 is normally closed (NC). The output switches off when a target enters the sensing range.

Is the E2EL-X8ME2-M1 compatible with a 4-pin M12 connector PLC?

Yes. The sensor terminates in an M12 4-pin connector that mates with standard M12 cordsets used on PLC input modules. Confirm that the PLC input is configured for NPN (sinking) signals.

What is the difference between E2EL-X8ME2-M1 and E2EL-X8ME1-M1?

The E2EL-X8ME2-M1 has a normally closed output; the E2EL-X8ME1-M1 has a normally open output. Both share the same 8 mm sensing distance, unshielded barrel, NPN output, and M12 connector.
