Pick this E2Q5-N20F3-M1 when you need a 20 mm shielded inductive sensor in a rectangular Module housing — not a standard barrel. The PNP output is field-selectable between NC and NO on the same three-wire lead, which saves a line item if your drawings aren't locked. IP69K means it survives hot-pressure washdown cycles at the packing end of a food line. Switching frequency 150 Hz is adequate for most discrete part detection, not high-speed counting.
