Omron E2E-X16MB1T18-M1 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X16MB1T18-M1 extends metal detection to 16 mm through an M18 unshielded inductive sensing arrangement with short-body construction. It provides DC 3-wire PNP NO switching through an M12 connector and operates across a 10 to 30 VDC supply range. The setting distance extends from 0 to 12.8 mm, while an iron 48 × 48 × 1 mm object is specified as the standard sensing target. Response frequency is 400 Hz, and the one-output version supports up to 200 mA. Standard I/O and IO-Link indication are also specified. The E2E-X16MB1T18-M1 is part of 16 mm proximity sensors from Omron smart sensing products.

The Omron E2E-X16MB1T18-M1 Proximity Sensor is intended for applications requiring extended detection clearance, using an M18 unshielded sensing body with a 16 mm inductive range and a 0 to 12.8 mm setting distance. Its short-body construction provides DC 3-wire PNP NO switching through an M12 connector and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified detection target, with an iron 48 × 48 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 400 Hz. The one-output configuration supports 200 mA max., while reverse-polarity, surge, and output short-circuit protection are included. SIO and IO-Link modes provide operation and communication indication.
Operating and storage conditions for the E2E-X16MB1T18-M1 cover -40 to 85°C. IEC 60529 IP67 and ISO 20653 protection specifications are listed. Its unshielded M18 sensing arrangement provides substantially more target clearance than short-range variants, while short-body construction limits the required mounting depth. The M12 connector supports detachable machine wiring. Nickel-plated brass, PBT, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are specified among the materials. IO-Link communication mode also provides a blinking green communication indication alongside the orange operation indicator. The supplied comparison data does not identify a specific alternative model for this configuration.
