Request... Price & Availability Contact us for pricing / 询价 This model features a shielded (flush-mountable) housing with an M18 thread, providing a sensing distance of 5 mm. It operates on a DC 3-wire system with an NPN normally open (NO) output, making it compatible with most PLCs and industrial controllers. The sensor comes with a 2-meter cable for easy wiring and installation. Built with Omron's high-frequency oscillation circuit, the TL-W5E1 2M ensures stable detection even in harsh industrial environments. It has a supply voltage range of 10-30 VDC and can switch loads up to 200 mA. The sensor is protected against reverse polarity, surges, and short circuits, ensuring long-term reliability. Its IP67 protection rating allows use in dusty and wet conditions, making it suitable for machine tools, conveyors, and automated assembly lines. This sensor is a direct replacement for older Omron models and is widely used in factory automation. Its compact design and robust construction make it a preferred choice for position sensing, part presence detection, and limit sensing applications. The TL-W5E1 2M is available as a new original part with full warranty, ensuring compatibility and performance. The Omron TL-W5E1 2M is a cylindrical inductive proximity sensor from the TL-W series, designed for reliable detection of ferrous metal objects without physical contact. Basic Product Information Sensing distance: 5 mm (ferrous metal) DC 3-wire, NPN normally open (NO) output Supply voltage: 10-30 VDC 2-meter cable for easy connection IP67 protection rating for harsh environments Reverse polarity, surge, and short-circuit protection Shielded (flush-mountable) M18 cylindrical housing Technical Specifications Version & Model Difference The TL-W5E1 2M is part of the Omron TL-W series. Compared to the TL-W5E1 (without cable), the '2M' suffix indicates a 2-meter cable is pre-attached. Other versions include TL-W5E1-5M (5-meter cable) and TL-W5E2 (PNP output). The TL-W5E1 2M is an updated model replacing older TL-W5A1 series, offering improved EMC immunity and a wider operating temperature range. Application Scenarios Is the TL-W5E1 2M shielded or unshielded? It is shielded (flush-mountable), meaning it can be embedded in metal without reducing the sensing distance. This allows for flush installation in machine parts. What is the output type and how do I connect it? The output is NPN normally open (NO). It is a 3-wire DC sensor: brown wire to positive (+V), blue wire to negative (0V), and black wire as the output signal. When a target is detected, the output transistor turns on and connects the load to ground. Can the TL-W5E1 2M be used with a 24V DC PLC input? Yes, it is designed for 10-30 VDC supply, so 24V DC is ideal. The NPN output can be connected to a PLC input that accepts sinking (NPN) signals. Ensure the PLC input common is connected to +24V. What is the sensing distance of the Omron TL-W5E1 2M? The sensing distance is 5 mm ±10% for ferrous metals (e.g., iron, steel). For non-ferrous metals like aluminum or copper, the sensing distance is reduced (typically 60-70% of the rated distance).
