Omron E2EQ-X12C118 2M Proximity Sensor
Omron E2EQ-X12C118 2M uses an M18 shielded inductive body with 12 mm sensing, a 0 to 9.6 mm setting range, and DC 3-wire NPN NO output. A pre-wired 2 m cable handles connection, while operating voltage spans 10 to 30 VDC and response frequency reaches 500 Hz. The E2EQ-X12C118 2M belongs to the E2EQ Series, while other body and output choices are covered across the wider 12 mm NPN proximity sensor range offered through Omron Sensors for industrial sensing.

The Omron E2EQ-X12C118 2M Proximity Sensor uses an M18 shielded inductive body with a 12 mm sensing distance and a 0 to 9.6 mm setting range. Its DC 3-wire NPN circuit provides normally open output through a pre-wired 2 m cable and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metals are specified with a 36 × 36 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency reaches 500 Hz, while the stated 1-output rating is 100 mA max. Supply reverse-polarity protection, surge suppression, output short-circuit protection, and output reverse-polarity protection are included.
For applications requiring an Omron M18 proximity sensor with 12 mm sensing, NPN NO switching, and fixed cable wiring, the specified model is the E2EQ-X12C118. Operating and storage temperatures cover -25 to 70°C, with IEC 60529 IP67 and JIS C 0920 Annex 1 IP67G listed. Fluororesin-coated brass, fluorine resin, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are included in the material details. Its M18 shielded format also fits specifications calling for an Omron NPN proximity sensor, Omron 12 mm proximity sensor, or Omron pre-wired proximity sensor. For a related M18 model with the same 12 mm sensing distance and NPN NO+NC output using Smartclick connection, see E2EQ-X12C318-M1TJ 0.3M.
