Omron E2B-M18KN16-WP-B1 2M Proximity Sensor
Omron E2B-M18KN16-WP-B1 2M is an M18 unshielded inductive proximity sensor combining a 16 mm sensing distance with 0 to 12.8 mm setting distance and short-body construction. Its output is PNP with NO operation, while connection is through a pre-wired 2 m cable. The sensor operates from 10 to 30 VDC and draws 10 mA max. Ferrous metal is the listed detectable object, using a 48 × 48 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 400 Hz and differential travel is 10% max. of sensing distance. A yellow operation LED and reverse-polarity, surge, and short-circuit protection are specified. The E2B-M18KN16-WP-B1 is part of the Proximity sensor family from Omron sensing products.

The Omron E2B-M18KN16-WP-B1 2M Proximity Sensor is an M18 unshielded inductive model with a 16 mm sensing distance, 0 to 12.8 mm setting distance, and short-body construction. It provides a PNP output with NO operation through a pre-wired 2 m cable, while the supply range is 10 to 30 VDC. Current consumption is 10 mA max. Ferrous metal is listed as the detectable object and a 48 × 48 × 1 mm object is specified as the standard sensing target. The sensor has a 400 Hz response frequency and 10% max. differential travel. A yellow operation LED is included with output reverse-polarity, power-source reverse-polarity, surge, and short-circuit protection.
The environmental specification covers -25 to 70°C for operation and storage without icing or condensation and 35% to 95% humidity. Temperature influence is ±10% max. at 23°C between -10 and 55°C, increasing to ±15% max. across -25 to 70°C. Insulation resistance is 50 MΩ min. at 500 VDC, and dielectric strength is 1,000 VAC for 1 minute. Voltage influence is ±1% max. of sensing distance at 24 VDC ±15%, with IP67 protection listed.
