Technical Overview
The Omron E2K-L26MC2 2M is an E2K l capacitive sensor with 12 to 26 mm pipe diameter sensing capability. It provides NPN open collector, 100 mA max. output in liquid level operation and uses a 2 m pre-wired cable. Omron specifies 12 to 24 VDC (10.8 to 30 VDC) and IP66 protection for this family. Confirm sensing conditions and controller compatibility in the application.

Suggested applications
Engineering suggestions require suitability checks for your installation.
1. Liquid level through a non-metal pipe
Monitor liquid presence through a non-metal pipe without contact with the liquid.
Potential use
Mount the sensor on a NC detection point of a compatible 12 to 26 mm diameter pipe and validate the liquid and pipe combination.
capacitive sensing
machine automation
2. Tank or process line level indication
Provide a discrete level signal from an external pipe-mounted sensor.
Potential use
Use the NPN open-collector output with a compatible controller input; verify the liquid dielectric properties and installation per Omron guidance.
