The Omron E2EC-CR8D1 2M is typically considered together with other sensors in the E2EC Cable Amplifier Proximity Sensor family because they follow similar mounting patterns, supply ranges, and adjustment behaviour. In practice, engineers often review related models such as Omron E2EC-C3D1 2M (Cable Amplifier, 3 mm sensing, Shielded, DC 2-Wire, NO, Pre-wired 2 M Cable), Omron E2EC-C1R5D1 2M (Cable Amplifier, 1.5 mm sensing, Shielded, DC 2-Wire, NO, Pre-wired 2 M Cable), and Omron E2EC-CR5C1 2M (Cable Amplifier, 0.5 mm sensing, Shielded, DC 3-wire NPN, NO, Pre-wired 2 M Cable) when selecting the most suitable variant for a tank, chute, conveyor, or compact fixture location. Comparing type, usable sensing distance, mounting style, output configuration, switching mode, and connection method helps match each sensor to the available mechanical space and wiring layout. The E2EC-CR8D1 2M fits naturally into panels, machine frames, dosing systems, and process equipment where a robust Omron Proximity Sensor is required for repeatable switching in industrial environments.
