Omron TL-Q5MC1-Z 2M Rectangular Inductive Proximity Sensor

BrandOmron
Model IdentifierTL-Q5MC1-Z 2M
Official Part NumberTL-Q5MC1-Z 2M

Technical Overview

The Omron TL-Q5MC1-Z 2M is an unshielded rectangular inductive proximity sensor with a 5 mm nominal sensing distance and a DC 3-wire NPN output. The manufacturer lists a normally open switching mode, a 12 to 24 VDC rated supply, IP67 protection and a 2 m pre-wired cable. Omron's Taiwan online store lists this exact regional model, while its current family specification page provides the TL-Q5MC electrical data; supply status is recorded as Unknown because stock is not explicitly stated.

Suggested applications

Engineering suggestions require suitability checks for your installation.

1. Metal target position detection

A fixture or machine may need to sense a steel part approaching a compact sensor face.

Potential use

The 5 mm inductive range can detect suitable ferrous targets without contact; confirm the mounting clearance, target dimensions and operating margin.

5 mm sensing NPN Normally open IP67

2. Compact machine limit sensing

An assembly or material-handling station may need a discrete signal when a moving metal component reaches a stop position.

Potential use

The 3-wire NPN output and 2 m cable can connect to a compatible control input after checking the input polarity, current and voltage requirements.
