The E2ES05S12WCB12M is a shielded, M5 threaded inductive proximity sensor designed for detecting ferrous metals. It features a precise sensing distance of 1.2 mm, a PNP open-collector output, and a normally open (NO) operation mode. This DC 3-wire sensor operates on a 10 to 30 VDC supply, has a response frequency of 4 kHz, and comes with a 2-meter oil-resistant PVC pre-wired cable. With its compact size, IP67 rating, and integrated load short-circuit and reverse polarity protection, it is well-suited for reliable object detection in industrial automation and assembly line applications.
