The E2EX1R5B1T8M1OMS: This M8 flush-mount inductive sensor from the Omron E2E-X series detects ferrous targets at 1.5 mm with a PNP normally-open output. Housing is stainless steel, rated IP67 and IP69K for washdown environments. Termination is an M12 connector, so field replacement runs without pulling new cable. Switching frequency hits 2 kHz, making it suitable for high-speed part counting or spindle position checking. Load current is 100 mA max across the 10–30 VDC supply range. Operating temperature span is -25 to 70 °C. The 15 mm cube body (width and height) occupies minimal DIN rail space.
How it compares to E2EX5MY12MOMS
The E2EX5MY12MOMS is a M12 non-flush sensor with 5 mm sensing distance, brass housing, and a 2 m cable. It uses a Non Flush Mount, so if your panel was designed for that part, the E2EX1R5B1T8M1OMS cannot drop in — different mounting type (flush vs non-flush), different form factor (M8 vs M12), and different termination (M12 connector vs cable).
This sensor is part of the current Omron E2E-X production portfolio. Sourced to order; RFQ for lead time and volume pricing.
