Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the E2C-EM07M-S is determined by the following critical parameters that must remain consistent:

• Sensing Distance: 0.276" (7mm)
• Package / Case: Cylinder, Threaded - M18
• Ingress Protection: IP67
• Material - Body: Brass
• Operating Temperature: -10°C ~ 60°C
• Termination Style: Cable with Connector
• Shielding: Unshielded

The Omron E2NC-EM07M-S meets all these mechanical and environmental requirements. While the E2NC series represents an active product line compared to the obsolete E2C series, both sensors maintain identical physical form factors, environmental ratings, and termination specifications, making the E2NC-EM07M-S a direct functional substitute.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The E2NC-EM07M-S is the appropriate substitute for the obsolete E2C-EM07M-S. The E2NC series is an active product line from Omron Automation and Safety, ensuring ongoing availability, technical support, and supply chain continuity. Both sensors share identical mechanical dimensions, environmental protection ratings, and electrical termination specifications, enabling direct replacement in existing installations without modification to mounting hardware or connector interfaces.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the E2NC-EM07M-S be used as a direct replacement for the E2C-EM07M-S?

A: Yes. Both sensors maintain identical sensing distance (0.276" / 7mm), M18 threaded cylinder package, IP67 rating, brass body construction, operating temperature range (-10°C to 60°C), and cable connector termination. Physical and environmental compatibility is complete.

Q: What is the primary difference between the E2C and E2NC series?

A: The E2C series is obsolete, while the E2NC series is an active product line. The E2NC-EM07M-S provides the same mechanical and environmental specifications with current manufacturing support and availability.

Q: Are there any installation considerations when switching from E2C-EM07M-S to E2NC-EM07M-S?

A: No installation modifications are required. The M18 threaded cylinder package, connector type, and sensing distance are identical, allowing the E2NC-EM07M-S to be installed in existing mounting locations without hardware changes.

Q: Does the substitute part maintain the same ingress protection rating?

A: Yes. Both the E2C-EM07M-S and E2NC-EM07M-S are rated IP67, providing identical protection against dust and temporary immersion in water.
