It runs on 10–30 VDC and is built to survive IP69K washdown and oil exposure (IP67G). The 10-meter cable gives flexibility in placement—no need for a junction box close to the target. This is a current-production part, so you can spare it for legacy lines or spec it into new BOMs without chasing obsolescence.
The 8 mm sensing range is measured with standard steel target; quasi-flush mounting means the face can sit nearly level with the mounting surface, saving space in tight nests. M18 thread makes it a direct swap for any M18 prox on your panel layout—just match the hole and tighten. PNP (sourcing) output drives a PLC input directly; NO contact ensures the sensor goes high when a target is present. Brass nickel-plated housing resists corrosion. IP67G includes oil immersion protection; IP69K handles high-pressure washdown. The 10-meter cable is pre-wired.
Lifecycle is marked current—Omron continues production on this E2E-Next variant. No last-time-buy pressure for this order code. If you're filling a BOM line or stocking a critical spare for an aging machine, this part is a straight, known quantity: order it, put one in the cabinet, and don't worry about a sudden phase-out.
