Overview

The E2E-S05S12-WC-C1 2M is a subminiature M5-threaded inductive proximity sensor designed for high-speed non-contact detection of ferrous metals at a range of 1.2mm. Its shielded construction and stainless steel housing allow for flush mounting in tight industrial spaces where traditional sensors are too bulky.

Why Choose This Part

This sensor offers robust electrical protection including load short-circuit, surge suppression, and reverse polarity protection for both the power and output stages. Its IP67 rating and stainless steel body provide reliable operation in harsh environments subject to dust or water ingress.

Applications

High-Speed Counting
Utilizes a 4kHz response frequency to accurately count or detect small metal components on fast-moving production lines.
Robotic End-Effectors
Small form factor and 10V-30V DC operating range make it ideal for detecting tool presence or part seating in robotic grippers.
Cylinder Position Monitoring
Mounts into M5 threaded holes to provide end-of-stroke feedback for pneumatic or hydraulic actuators.
Automated Assembly Latches
Ensures mechanical clamps or latches are fully engaged before proceeding with automated assembly steps.

Getting Started

Integration requires connecting the 3-wire cable leads (typically Brown for 10-30VDC, Blue for 0V, and Black for the NPN-NO output) to a PLC or digital input module. Ensure the target material is ferrous for maximum sensing distance and use the provided M5 nuts for secure flush-mount installation.
