The E2FQ-X7D1-6T is a shielded M18 inductive proximity sensor housed in fluororesin (PTFE), delivering 7 mm of sensing distance on a standard ferrous target. Its two-wire DC output (12-24 VDC, normally open) simplifies wiring to a PLC digital input or relay coil—no separate load resistor needed for most DC logic levels. The PTFE body resists aggressive chemicals, caustic washdowns, and solvents that would quickly pit brass or stainless steel housings in food, pharmaceutical, or chemical process lines. Mount through the M18x1 threaded body or a bracket with an 18 mm hole. Shielded construction allows flush installation in metal without derating the sensing range. Overall length is 47 mm (threaded length 29 mm) — shorter than comparable brass-bodied sensors, so confirm clearance in existing brackets.
Comparison with E2E-X7D1-M1G-T (brass version)
The E2E-X7D1-M1G-T matches the electrical ratings (7 mm, NO, 2-wire DC, 12-24 VDC) but uses nickel-plated brass housing and a standard M12 4-pin connector (vs. special M12 on the E2FQ). It is also longer: 53 mm body, 38 mm thread.
