6 Inductive Sensors
E2E-X@E@/F@ DC 3-wire Models
Note: 1. The response speed is an average value. Measurement conditions are as follows: standard sensing object, a distance of twice the standard sensing object,
and a set distance of half the sensing distance.
2. When using an E2E with an M8 connector at an ambient temperature range between 70° C and 85° C, supply 10 to 30 VDC to the E2E and make sure that
the E2E has a control output of 100 mA maximum.
