Omron E2E-X8B1T18 2M Proximity Sensor
Omron E2E-X8B1T18 2M is an M18 shielded inductive proximity sensor with an 8 mm sensing distance, 0 to 6.4 mm setting distance, and short-body construction. It provides a DC 3-wire PNP 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 24 × 24 × 1 mm standard sensing target. Response frequency is 500 Hz, while the one-output configuration supports up to 200 mA. Reverse-polarity, surge, and output short-circuit protection are specified. The E2E-X8B1T18 2M is part of 8 mm M18 proximity sensors from Omron advanced sensing products.

The Omron E2E-X8B1T18 2M Proximity Sensor combines an M18 shielded inductive sensing body with an 8 mm sensing distance, a 0 to 6.4 mm setting distance, and short-body construction. It provides a DC 3-wire PNP output with NO operation through a pre-wired 2 m cable and works from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified detection target, with an iron 24 × 24 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 500 Hz. The one-output configuration supports up to 200 mA, while reverse-polarity protection, surge suppression, output short-circuit protection, and output reverse-polarity protection are specified. Standard I/O and IO-Link modes include dedicated status indication.
Operating and storage conditions for the E2E-X8B1T18 extend from -40 to 85°C. IEC 60529 IP67 and ISO 20653 are listed for environmental protection. The shielded M18 sensing arrangement is paired with an 8 mm sensing range and allows mounting close to surrounding metal. Short-body construction reduces installation depth, while the fixed 2 m cable supports direct machine wiring. Nickel-plated brass, PBT, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are specified among the construction materials. Its PNP NO output provides a sourcing control signal for compatible systems.
