Omron E2E-X2C18 2M Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X2C18 2M is a compact M8 shielded inductive proximity sensor with a 2 mm sensing distance, 0 to 1.6 mm setting distance, and short-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, with an iron 8 × 8 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 1,500 Hz, while the listed 1-output rating is 200 mA max. Standard I/O and IO-Link indication are also specified. The E2E-X2C18 2M is listed among M8 NPN proximity sensors from Omron industrial automation sensors.

The Omron E2E-X2C18 2M Proximity Sensor uses an M8 shielded inductive sensing body with a 2 mm sensing distance, a 0 to 1.6 mm setting distance, and short-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, with an iron 8 × 8 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 1,500 Hz. The supplied data lists 200 mA max. for 1-output models and 50 mA max. for 2-output models. Power-supply reverse-polarity, surge, output short-circuit, and output reverse-polarity protection are specified.
The supplied environmental data for the E2E-X2C18 lists 35% to 95%, while IEC 60529 IP67 and ISO 20653 are provided as protection specifications. SUS303 stainless steel, PBT, nickel-plated brass, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are listed among the construction materials. The compact shielded M8 body combines a 2 mm sensing range with NPN NO switching and direct 2 m cable wiring. Its 1,500 Hz response supports rapid target detection within the specified range. Standard I/O mode provides orange operation indication, while IO-Link communication mode also uses a green communication indicator. This model is intended for ferrous-metal detection in compact machine sensing positions.
