Omron E2EQ-X8B1D18-M1TJ 0.3M M18 Proximity Sensor, 8mm, PNP

The Omron E2EQ-X8B1D18-M1TJ 0.3M is an M18 shielded inductive proximity sensor with an 8 mm sensing distance and a fluororesin coating that resists welding slag buildup. It's part of the E2EQ NEXT extended-range series, offering roughly double the sensing range of a standard M18 shielded sensor — useful when machine clearance is tight or mounting brackets need to sit further back. Ingress protection is rated IP67 and IP67G, meaning it's sealed against temporary immersion and has a tested oil / coolant resistance (G version). IP69K is not claimed, so for high-pressure hot-water washdown environments this is not the right part. Output is PNP normally open, three-wire DC, running on 10 to 30 VDC. The M12 pigtail connector (Smartclick style) mates with standard M12 cordsets and includes a 0.3 m cable. The short-body brass housing keeps the z-height to 55.3 mm, with 34 mm threaded length for mounting. IO-Link COM2 capability is built in, allowing parameter readback and remote configuration if the master supports it. The sensor is shielded, so it's suitable for flush mounting in metal.
