Omron E2E-X20MC2L18 2M Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X20MC2L18 2M uses an M18 unshielded long threaded body with a 20 mm sensing distance and DC 3-wire NPN normally closed output. A pre-wired 2 m cable provides the connection, while the usable setting range is 0 to 16 mm. It operates from 10 to 30 VDC and supports a 200 Hz response frequency. Within the E2E NEXT Series, the Omron E2E-X20MC2L18 2M represents the NPN NC cable version. For other sensing distances and output types, users can compare NPN proximity sensors available across the complete selection from Omron Sensor Products.

The Omron E2E-X20MC2L18 2M Proximity Sensor uses an M18 unshielded long threaded body with a 20 mm sensing distance and a 0 to 16 mm usable setting range. Its DC 3-wire NPN output follows normally closed logic and is connected through a pre-wired 2 m cable. Supply voltage is 10 to 30 VDC, while response frequency is specified at 200 Hz. Ferrous metal is the stated sensing material with an iron 60 × 60 × 1 mm standard object. Rated current reaches 100 mA max. for 1-output versions and 50 mA max. for 2-output versions. Reverse-polarity, surge, and output short-circuit safeguards are provided.
When comparing Omron NPN proximity sensors for long-body installation, normally closed switching, and a 20 mm range, the applicable model is the E2E-X20MC2L18. Its operating and storage temperature specification runs from -25 to 70°C, together with IP67 under IEC 60529 and ISO 20653. This Omron M18 proximity sensor uses a permanently attached cable rather than detachable wiring. For a smaller M12 body with NPN NC output, users can also review the Omron E2E-X4C2L12 2M.
