This is the E2K-X15ME2, a 30 mm cylindrical capacitive proximity sensor from the E2K-X series. It detects both metallic and non-metallic objects up to 15 mm away without sensitivity adjustment — set-and-forget for tank level, hopper fill, or material presence detection. Output is NPN normally-closed, rated for 200 mA continuous load, switching 10–30 VDC. The 2-meter prewired cable with bare-wire termination drops straight into existing control panel wiring — no connector to source. IP66 and NEMA 1, 4, 12, 13 enclosure ratings cover wash-down and dusty environments. Plastic body with indicator lights simplifies commissioning. Carries CCC and CE marks — no special regional certification hurdles for cross-border sourcing.
