Omron E2E-X8B1T18-M1 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X8B1T18-M1 uses an M18 shielded inductive sensing format with an 8 mm detection distance, 0 to 6.4 mm setting range, and short-body design. It provides DC 3-wire PNP NO output through an M12 connector and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified target, paired with an iron 24 × 24 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 500 Hz, and one-output models are rated up to 200 mA. Power-supply reverse polarity, surge, output short-circuit, and output reverse-polarity protection are specified. The E2E-X8B1T18-M1 belongs to the M18 PNP proximity sensor range available from Omron automation products.

The Omron E2E-X8B1T18-M1 Proximity Sensor uses an M18 shielded inductive sensing arrangement with an 8 mm sensing distance, 0 to 6.4 mm setting range, and short-body construction. It provides DC 3-wire PNP NO output through an M12 connector and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified detection target, paired with an iron 24 × 24 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 500 Hz, while one-output models are rated up to 200 mA. Power-supply reverse polarity, surge, output short-circuit, and output reverse-polarity protection are included. This combination suits Omron M18 PNP proximity sensor applications requiring connector-based wiring and shielded mounting.
Operating and storage conditions for the E2E-X8B1T18-M1 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 listed among the construction materials. The shielded M18 format supports installation close to surrounding metal, while the short body helps reduce rear mounting depth. The detachable M12 connector simplifies cable replacement during machine servicing. Standard I/O and IO-Link communication modes provide orange operation and green communication indication. The 8 mm sensing distance makes this model suitable for non-contact ferrous-metal detection across industrial machinery, conveyors, fixtures, and automated production equipment.
