Omron E2B-M12KN05-M1-C2 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2B-M12KN05-M1-C2 is an M12 unshielded inductive proximity sensor with a 5 mm sensing distance and short-body construction. It uses a DC 3-wire NPN output with NC operation through an M12 connector and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified detectable object, with a 15 × 15 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 800 Hz, current consumption is 10 mA max., and differential travel is 10% max. of sensing distance. A yellow operation LED, reverse-polarity protection, surge suppression, short-circuit protection, and IP67 protection are specified. The E2B-M12KN05-M1-C2 is included among M12 proximity sensors from Omron industrial sensors.

The Omron E2B-M12KN05-M1-C2 Proximity Sensor uses an M12 unshielded inductive sensing body with a 5 mm sensing distance and short-body construction. It provides a DC 3-wire NPN output with NC operation through an M12 connector and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified detectable object, with a 15 × 15 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 800 Hz, current consumption is 10 mA max., and differential travel is 10% max. of sensing distance. A yellow operation LED is provided. Output reverse-polarity protection, power-source reverse-polarity protection, surge suppression, and short-circuit protection are listed in the electrical specifications.
Operating and storage conditions for the E2B-M12KN05-M1-C2 are -25 to 70°C without icing or condensation, with humidity from 35% to 95%. Voltage influence is ±1% max. of sensing distance at 24 VDC ±15%. IP67 according to IEC 60529 and EMC according to EN60947-5-2 are specified. Stainless steel is listed for the case, PBT for the sensing surface, PVC for the standard cable specification, and nickel-plated brass for the clamping nut. The model itself uses an M12 connector rather than the standard cable. For another 5 mm NC E2B proximity sensor with PNP output and an M18 body, see E2B-M18LS05-M1-B2.
