The Omron E2E-X12C118-M1 Proximity Sensor uses an M18 shielded inductive body with a 12 mm sensing distance, 0 to 9.6 mm setting range, and short-body construction. It provides DC 3-wire NPN normally open output through an M12 connector and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified sensing object, using an iron 36 × 36 × 1 mm standard target. Response frequency is 500 Hz. Current ratings reach 100 mA max. for 1-output models and 50 mA max. for 2-output versions. Reverse polarity, surge, and output short-circuit protection are provided.
Operating and storage temperatures extend from -25 to 70°C, while IP67 according to IEC 60529 and ISO 20653 are specified. Nickel-plated brass, PBT, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are listed among the materials. For an M18 NPN proximity sensor requiring a short housing and M12 connector, the E2E-X12C118-M1 provides normally open output with a 12 mm sensing distance. For a long-body version using a 2 m cable, see E2E-X12C1L18 2M.
