Omron E2A-M18LN16-WP-C1 2M Proximity Sensor
Omron E2A-M18LN16-WP-C1 2M is an M18 cylindrical unshielded inductive proximity sensor with a 16 mm sensing distance and 0 to 12.8 mm setting range. The long-body model uses DC 3-wire NPN NO switching and comes with a pre-wired 2 m cable for direct connection. It operates from a 12 to 24 VDC supply and has a 400 Hz response frequency. Control output is rated 200 mA max. at 32 VDC max., with a 2 V max. voltage drop. A yellow operation indicator is included along with reverse-polarity, surge, and short-circuit protection. See the E2A-M18LN16-WP-C1 2M under cable type proximity sensors from Omron Sensors.

The Omron E2A-M18LN16-WP-C1 2M Proximity Sensor uses an M18 cylindrical unshielded inductive body with a 16 mm sensing distance and 0 to 12.8 mm setting range. Its long housing has a DC 3-wire NPN normally open output connected through a pre-wired 2 m cable. The operating supply is 12 to 24 VDC, with response frequency specified at 400 Hz. Control output is rated 200 mA max. at 32 VDC max., while voltage drop is limited to 2 V. A yellow LED indicates switching status. Reverse-polarity protection is provided for the output and supply circuits, together with surge suppression and short-circuit protection. The fixed cable makes this model suitable where direct field wiring is preferred.
E2A-M18LN16-WP-C1 is rated for operation from -40 to 70°C and storage from -40 to 85°C. Protection specifications include IP67 according to IEC 60529 and IP69K according to DIN 40050, with EMC according to EN60947-5-2. Listed construction materials include brass-nickel-plated or stainless-steel housing options and PBT components. The M18 long body and unshielded sensing arrangement support the stated 16 mm sensing distance, while the 2 m cable removes the need for a separate connector. For an M12 E2A proximity sensor with an 8 mm sensing distance and the same NPN NO pre-wired arrangement, see E2A-M12LN08-WP-C1 2M.
