Omron E2E-X5C118-M1 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X5C118-M1 is an M18 shielded inductive proximity sensor with a 5 mm sensing distance, 0 to 4 mm setting distance, and short-body construction. It uses a DC 3-wire NPN output with NO operation through an M12 connector and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metals are the specified detectable targets, with an iron 18 × 18 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 600 Hz, and the one-output version is rated up to 200 mA. Protection covers supply reverse polarity, surge suppression, output short circuits, and output reverse polarity. The E2E-X5C118-M1 is listed among M18 NPN inductive sensors from Omron industrial automation products.

The Omron E2E-X5C118-M1 Proximity Sensor uses an M18 shielded inductive sensing body with a 5 mm sensing distance, a 0 to 4 mm setting distance, and compact short-body construction. It provides a DC 3-wire NPN output with NO operation through an M12 connector and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metals are the specified detectable targets, paired with an iron 18 × 18 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 600 Hz. The one-output configuration supports up to 200 mA, while supply reverse-polarity, surge, output short-circuit, and output reverse-polarity protection are specified. Operation and communication indicators support Standard I/O and IO-Link communication modes.
Operating and storage conditions for the E2E-X5C118-M1 span -40 to 85°C. IEC 60529 IP67 and ISO 20653 are listed among the environmental protection specifications. Shielded M18 construction permits installation close to surrounding metal while maintaining the stated 5 mm sensing range. The short body limits required rear installation space, and the M12 connector allows detachable field wiring. Nickel-plated brass, PBT, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are listed among the construction materials. NPN NO switching provides a sinking normally open control signal. For another E2E sensor with a 7 mm sensing distance and DC 2-wire configuration, see E2E-X7D1-M1G.
