Omron’s complete line of Short Barrel, Cylindrical Style, Proximity Sensors provides up to twice the sensing distance in comparison with CENELEC standards packaged in a compact size. This technology decreases costs with maintenance in reducing damage by avoiding collisions between the work piece and sensor. With its solid potted internal construction combined with its Stainless Steel or Nickel Plated Brass construction, Omron’s family of Short Barrel Inductive Proximity Sensors can withstand shock, vibration, and mechanical wear to provide increased life to minimize your downtime costs. Each of these sensors are also rated to IP67, 1200 psi water washdown and available in M8, M12, M18 and M30 barrel diameters.
E2K-C - Capacitive Proximity Sensor Plastic Barrel
E2K-C AC 2-Wire & DC 3-Wire Proximity Sensor Plastic Barrel
The E2K-C family offers the application versatility of capacitive style proximity sensing in the flexibility of a threaded cylindrical sensor to detect metallic and non-metallic objects. This family of sensors are ideal for non-contact sensing of metallic and non-metallic targets including water, oil, glass, plastic and wood, even detecting liquid levels inside non-metallic containers. These sensors have multi-turn adjusters allowing the user-adjustable settings of the detection distance. The E2K-C can even reliably detect foamy liquids in sight glass applications.
