Information About E2CA-AL4E
The E2CA-AL4E is a compact proximity sensor amplifier from Omron’s E2CA series, designed to convert analog sensing signals from compatible inductive sensors into a linear 4–20 mA current output. Ideal for high-resolution metal detection and position monitoring, the amplifier offers stable, noise-resistant operation in a panel-mount format. Though now obsolete, it remains available through surplus distributors and continues to support legacy sensor applications in industrial automation.
Key Features:
- Omron Engineered: Designed as part of Omron’s E2CA linear sensing system for precision analog proximity detection.
- Linear Output: Delivers a standard 4–20 mA current output signal proportional to the detected distance, suitable for PLCs and analog input devices.
- Compatible Sensors: Pairs with E2CA M18 inductive sensors such as the E2CA-X5A and X5M for accurate metal detection in the 3–5 mm range.
- Panel Mount Design: Easily installs in control cabinets using an 11-pin socket base, simplifying wiring and maintenance.
- Standard Amplifier Type: Offers a straightforward and robust interface with stable signal conversion and response up to 5 kHz.
- Power Supply: Operates on 10–30 VDC with a max current draw of 70 mA, compatible with most industrial low-voltage systems.
- Operating Temperature: Rated for –10 °C to +55 °C, ensuring stable operation in typical factory environments.
- Discontinued Model: No longer in production but still accessible through aftermarket and surplus suppliers for legacy systems.
The E2CA-AL4E remains a reliable and cost-effective amplifier for linear proximity sensing applications. Its precise analog output and compatibility with Omron’s E2CA sensors make it a dependable option for retrofits, legacy system maintenance, and signal conversion in compact industrial setups.
