Overview

The E2E-S05S12-WC-B1 2M is a high-performance subminiature inductive proximity sensor featuring a compact M5 threaded stainless steel body. It provides a 1.2mm sensing distance with a high-speed 4kHz response frequency, making it ideal for precision position detection in high-speed automated machinery.

Why Choose This Part

This sensor offers robust electrical protection including load short-circuit, surge suppression, and reverse polarity protection for both the power source and output circuits. Its IP67-rated stainless steel housing ensures reliable operation in harsh industrial environments with moisture or dust exposure.

Applications

High-Speed Counting
Utilizing its 4kHz response frequency to detect small metallic parts on fast-moving assembly lines.
Robotic End-Effectors
Compact M5 form factor allows integration into small robotic grippers for workpiece presence detection.
Cam Position Sensing
Monitoring the rotation of small metal cams or gears in precision mechanical assemblies.
Limit Switching
Serving as a non-contact end-stop for miniature linear actuators where space is highly constrained.
