Product Overview

The Omron ZX-EDR5T is the ZX-E series cylindrical inductive displacement sensor head, manufactured by Omron Corporation. Hengyixin Automation ships this sensor from our Xiamen warehouse with a 30-day DOA return window and a datasheet PDF included in the box.

It reads the displacement of a magnetic metal target from 0 to 0.5 mm at 1 um resolution when paired with a ZX-EDA amplifier unit at the maximum 4096 average-count setting. Linearity is +/- 0.5 percent F.S. The 3 mm diameter by 18 mm brass body fits tight fixtures.

The sensor head is IP65 with a heat-resistant ABS sensing surface and a 2 m connector-relay cable. Operating temperature is 0 to 50 C for the head and -10 to 60 C for the preamplifier. The head needs a ZX-EDA11 or ZX-EDA41 amplifier to deliver a linear output, judgement outputs and timing inputs. For a non-contact proximity sensor at larger distances, use the E2E-X8B1D18-M1.

Key Features

  • ZX-E cylindrical inductive displacement sensor head, 0 to 0.5 mm measurement range, 1 um resolution with ZX-EDA amplifier at 4096 averages
  • 3 mm diameter x 18 mm body, brass case, heat-resistant ABS sensing surface, IP65 sensor head
  • Linearity +/- 0.5 percent F.S., temperature characteristic 0.15 percent F.S. per degree C, magnetic metal target only
  • Requires ZX-EDA11 (NPN) or ZX-EDA41 (PNP) amplifier unit for linear output, judgement outputs and timing inputs
  • SKU: ZX-EDR5T
  • Series: ZX-E Smart Sensors, inductive displacement family

Best-Fit Applications

  • Runout check on a turned shaft where the ZX-EDR5T rides 0.5 mm above the journal and outputs 4-20 mA to the PLC
  • Thickness measurement on a metal strip where two ZX-EDR5T heads face each other across the strip and the differential reads the gap for SPC trending
  • Spare replacement on a press-fit station where the original 3 mm ZX-EDR5T head was damaged and the ZX-EDA amplifier and bracket are kept

Buying Checklist

  • Pick the ZX-EDR5T when the fixture needs a 3 mm cylindrical inductive head with 0.5 mm range and a 2 m cable for tight gaps.
  • Pick the ZX-ED01T instead when the fixture has 5.4 mm clearance and the application needs 0 to 1 mm of measurement range.
  • Pick the ZX-EM07MT instead when the application needs an M18 threaded barrel and 0 to 7 mm of measurement range for a standard through-hole mount.

FAQ for ZX-EDR5T

What is the Omron ZX-EDR5T used for?
It is the ZX-E cylindrical inductive displacement sensor head with 0 to 0.5 mm range. Typical uses are runout and concentricity checks on turned shafts, thickness measurements on metal strips with two facing heads, and spare replacements on damaged press-fit stations. The head plugs into a ZX-EDA11 (NPN) or ZX-EDA41 (PNP) amplifier for linear output.
Does the ZX-EDR5T work without an amplifier?
No. The ZX-EDR5T is the sensor head only. It must be paired with a ZX-EDA11 (NPN outputs) or ZX-EDA41 (PNP outputs) amplifier unit to deliver a linear 4 to 20 mA / +/- 5 V signal, three HIGH / PASS / LOW judgement outputs, and timing / zero-reset / hold inputs. The head and amplifier are sold separately.
ZX-EDR5T vs ZX-ED01T - what is the difference?
Both are ZX-E cylindrical inductive sensor heads. The ZX-EDR5T measures 0 to 0.5 mm at 3 mm diameter; the ZX-ED01T measures 0 to 1 mm at 5.4 mm diameter. The ZX-EDR5T is for tight fixtures where only 3 mm clearance is available; the ZX-ED01T is for the common 5.4 mm clearance with double the range.
Is the ZX-EDR5T still in production?
The ZX-E series was placed on discontinuation notice effective January 2021. Hengyixin stocks the ZX-EDR5T for the existing install base and for new builds that specify the part. For new high-precision designs, evaluate the ZX-series successor family or contact Omron for the recommended replacement.
