combination with E2E NEXT Series proximity sensors.
• Oil-resistant robot cables for use with moving parts such as
loaders and cableveyors
• OMRON's unique lock mechanism (Smartclick) that is compatible
with round M12 connectors.
• Simply insert the Connectors, then turn them approximately 1/8 of a turn to lock.
• A positive click indicates locking.
• IP67, IP69K degree of protection.
• UL approved products.

The oil-resistance performance value (2 years) indicates the median value (=Typ) at product design, and in evaluation testing results of oil-
resistance performance. Shipped products will show some variance around this 2 year value in actual usage.
Features
Better Cable Oil Resistance, and Improved Overall Oil Resistance with New Rubber
Material in Mating Sections
The XS5 NEXT Series uses a special PVC cable that limits deterioration of the cable sheath due to both water-soluble and water-insoluble cutting oil.
Omron's proprietary molding technique prevents cutting oil intrusion from mating sections. Moreover, using the same new HNBR/fluoride rubber
as in oil-resistant components of connector mating sections helps improve the overall oil resistance.

certified for safety standards, refer to your OMRON website.

New Rubber Material Combining HNBR
and Fluororubber
Hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber (HNBR), which provides
superior resistance to oil, was blended with fluororubber in a unique
OMRON compound to develop a new rubber that provides superior
resistance to both swelling and deterioration due to cutting oil.
It is used in seals for joints and moving sections that prevent ingress
to prevent deterioration and destruction of the seal due to cutting oil,
resulting in increased oil resistance performance.
