Omron TL-N12MD2 2M Proximity Sensor
Omron TL-N12MD2 2M uses a rectangular unshielded inductive sensing format with a 12 mm sensing distance and a 0 to 9.6 mm setting distance. It provides a DC 2-wire NC output through a pre-wired 2 m cable and operates from 12 to 24 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified detectable object, using an iron 40 × 40 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Leakage current is 0.8 mA max., response frequency is 500 Hz, and differential travel is 10% max. of sensing distance. A red operation indicator, load short-circuit protection, surge suppression, and IP67 protection are specified. The TL-N12MD2 2M is included among 2-wire proximity sensors from Omron industrial sensing products.

The Omron TL-N12MD2 2M Proximity Sensor uses a rectangular unshielded inductive sensing body with a 12 mm sensing distance and a 0 to 9.6 mm setting distance. It provides a DC 2-wire NC output through a pre-wired 2 m cable and operates from 12 to 24 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified detectable object, with an iron 40 × 40 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Leakage current is 0.8 mA max., response frequency is 500 Hz, and differential travel is 10% max. of sensing distance. A red operation indicator is provided, while load short-circuit protection and surge suppression are specified.
Environmental limits for the TL-N12MD2 are -25 to 70°C during operation and -40 to 85°C during storage, with humidity from 35% to 95%. Temperature influence is ±10% max. of sensing distance at 23°C across -25 to 70°C. Insulation resistance is 50 MΩ min. at 500 VDC, dielectric strength is 1,000 VAC for 1 minute, and voltage influence is ±2.5% max. within rated voltage ±10%. Vibration resistance is specified at 10 to 55 Hz with 1.5 mm double amplitude for two hours in each axis, while shock resistance is 1,000 m/s² ten times in each X, Y, and Z direction. IP67 protection is listed. For another pre-wired TL model retaining NC operation but using DC 3-wire NPN output and a 5 mm sensing distance, see TL-N5ME2 2M.
