Omron E2E-X5C1L18 2M Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X5C1L18 2M is an M18 shielded inductive proximity sensor with a 5 mm sensing distance, 0 to 4 mm setting distance, and long-body construction. It provides a DC 3-wire NPN output with NO operation through a pre-wired 2 m cable and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified detectable object, paired with an iron 18 × 18 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 600 Hz, while the listed 1-output rating is 200 mA max. Standard I/O and IO-Link indication are supported. The E2E-X5C1L18 2M belongs to M18 NPN proximity sensors from Omron industrial sensing technology.

The Omron E2E-X5C1L18 2M Proximity Sensor uses an M18 shielded inductive sensing body with a 5 mm sensing distance, a 0 to 4 mm setting distance, and long-body construction. It provides a DC 3-wire NPN output with NO operation through a pre-wired 2 m cable and works from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified detectable object, paired with an iron 18 × 18 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 600 Hz. The supplied ratings list 200 mA max. for 1-output models and 100 mA max. for 2-output models. Supply reverse-polarity, surge, output short-circuit, and output reverse-polarity protection are included.
Operating and storage conditions for the E2E-X5C1L18 extend from -40 to 85°C. IEC 60529 IP67 and ISO 20653 are specified for environmental protection. Nickel-plated brass, PBT, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are included among the construction materials. The shielded M18 configuration combines a 5 mm sensing distance with NPN NO switching and long-body mounting, providing additional housing length for installation through brackets or machine structures. Its fixed 2 m cable supports direct machine wiring. Standard I/O and IO-Link communication indication are also specified. For another E2E NEXT model with an M12 body and DC 3-wire PNP output, see E2E-X5MB1T12 2M.
