Inductive sensor family for metal-target detection. Select the body, sensing distance, output circuit and connection method as one complete reference.
Series selection
| Parameter | Reference data |
|---|---|
| Technology | Inductive proximity sensing |
| M12 shielded lineup example | 2 mm sensing distance |
| M18 shielded lineup example | 5 mm sensing distance |
| Connection choices | Pre-wired, connector or short-lead connector by model |
| Output choices | Output circuit and NO/NC behaviour selected by suffix |
| Example M12 references | E2E-X2B1T12 2M / E2E-X2B1D12 2M / E2E-X2C112 2M; different output versions |
The example references are not interchangeable output circuits. Confirm PNP/NPN or 2-wire, NO/NC, target material, flush/non-flush installation, cable length and connector pinout from the selected data sheet.
Choose the output circuit to suit the PLC input and the mounting arrangement to suit the target.
Record the suffix, pinout and cable exit; a similar housing does not establish electrical equivalence.
