Omron E2E-X2MC18 2M Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X2MC18 2M is an M8 unshielded inductive proximity sensor with a 2 mm sensing distance, 0 to 1.6 mm setting distance, and short-body configuration. It uses 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 sensing target, paired 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. Protection against supply reverse polarity, surge, output short circuit, and output reverse polarity is specified. The E2E-X2MC18 2M is part of unshielded M8 proximity sensors from Omron industrial sensor products.

The Omron E2E-X2MC18 2M Proximity Sensor combines an M8 unshielded inductive sensing body with a 2 mm sensing distance, a 0 to 1.6 mm setting distance, and short-body construction. It uses 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 detection target, paired with an iron 8 × 8 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 1,500 Hz. The source lists 200 mA max. for 1-output models and 50 mA max. for 2-output models. Supply reverse-polarity, surge, output short-circuit, and output reverse-polarity protection are specified.
The supplied environmental data for the E2E-X2MC18 lists 35% to 95%. IEC 60529 IP67 and ISO 20653 are specified for the sensor, while SUS303 stainless steel, PBT, nickel-plated brass, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are included among the construction materials. The unshielded M8 arrangement provides the stated 2 mm sensing distance and combines it with NPN NO switching and a compact short-body format. The pre-wired 2 m cable supports direct connection to machine controls without a separate sensor connector. Standard I/O and IO-Link communication indication are also specified. Ferrous metal remains the stated target for this sensing configuration.
