What the 10 mm range and IP69K mean for a wet environment
The E2EX10MB1T18M1OMS: The 10 mm sensing distance is specified on mild steel — the correction factor for stainless is 0.7×, so budget 7 mm in a stainless target application. Non-flush mount means the sensing face extends past the mounting surface, giving you the full 10 mm reach. IP67 plus IP69K means this sensor body and optics survive washdown and high-pressure steam cleaning. The IP69K rating holds up to 80°C water at 80-100 bar — that's the real test for food-and-bev or wastewater lift stations where a hose-down is daily. The brass nickel-plated barrel handles corrosive environments better than plastic housings. In a wet well with H2S off-gassing, the nickel plating buys you years over an uncoated stainless or painted body.
Switching speed and output for conveyor counting
400 Hz switching frequency means the sensor can detect targets passing at up to 400 per second. Above that the output pulse width shortens until the downstream PLC input filter misses edges — so for a fast-moving conveyor, confirm your PLC's input filter time constant. PNP normally open output, 200 mA load current, operating on 10-30 VDC. The 16 mA current consumption is the sensor's own draw — it won't load your 24 VDC supply rail. M18 barrel with an M12 4-pin connector — the connector is field-replaceable without rewiring the sensor head. The M12 form factor is standard for panel feed-through glands.
