What you're getting
The Omron E2EX7T12MOMS is a current-production M18 flush-mount inductive sensor. It detects ferrous targets up to 7 mm away at 500 Hz, with a simple NO dry-contact output rated for 100 mA at 10–30 VDC. The brass housing is IP67, and the 2 m cable is pre-attached – no connector to buy. Body dimensions are 29 mm square by 43 mm deep. The M18 threaded body fits standard panel holes.
Another variant, E2EX8B3D182MOMS, offers 8 mm range with both NO and NC contacts and a wider temperature range (-40 to +85 °C) but needs 20 mA supply current. For standard indoor machine build, the 7 mm part keeps the circuit simple and the supply budget tight.
Mounting & wiring note
Flush mount allows the sensor face to be level with the mounting surface. The M18 body has a 2 m cable. The output is rated for 100 mA. Repeat accuracy is 10 % of the 7 mm sensing distance.
