Omron E2E-X18ME1-M1 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X18ME1-M1 is a cylindrical M30 unshielded inductive proximity sensor with an 18 mm sensing distance and 0 to 14 mm setting distance. It uses a DC 3-wire NPN output with NO operation through an M12 connector and operates from 12 to 24 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified detectable object, with an iron 54 × 54 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 0.1 kHz, while control output is rated 200 mA max. A red operation indicator is provided together with load short-circuit, surge, and reverse-polarity protection. The E2E-X18ME1-M1 belongs to M30 proximity sensors from Omron factory automation products.

The Omron E2E-X18ME1-M1 Proximity Sensor uses a cylindrical M30 unshielded inductive sensing body with an 18 mm sensing distance and a 0 to 14 mm setting distance. It provides a DC 3-wire NPN output with NO operation through an M12 connector and operates from 12 to 24 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified detectable object, paired with an iron 54 × 54 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 0.1 kHz, while control output is rated 200 mA max. A red operation indicator is specified. Load short-circuit protection, surge suppression, and reverse-polarity protection are provided for the sensor circuit.
Operating and storage conditions for the E2E-X18ME1-M1 extend from -40 to 85°C without icing or condensation, while IEC 60529 IP67 is specified for enclosure protection. Nickel-plated brass, PBT, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are included among the construction materials. The M30 unshielded configuration provides the stated 18 mm sensing distance and combines it with NPN NO switching through an M12 connector. The detachable connection supports cable removal during servicing, while the larger sensing range provides additional clearance from ferrous-metal targets. For another NPN E2E model in the supplied comparison set with an M12 body, 10 mm sensing distance, and NO plus NC switching, see E2E-X10MC3L12-M1.
