Omron E2B-M18KN16-WP-B2 2M Proximity Sensor
Omron E2B-M18KN16-WP-B2 2M is an M18 unshielded inductive proximity sensor with a 16 mm sensing distance and short-body construction. It uses a DC 3-wire PNP output with NC operation, a pre-wired 2 m cable, and a 10 to 30 VDC supply. Ferrous metal is the specified detectable object, with a 48 × 48 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 400 Hz, current consumption is 10 mA max., and differential travel is 10% max. of sensing distance. A yellow operation LED is provided with reverse-polarity, surge, and short-circuit protection. The E2B-M18KN16-WP-B2 2M is listed under M18 proximity sensors from Omron automation products.

The Omron E2B-M18KN16-WP-B2 2M Proximity Sensor uses an M18 unshielded inductive sensing format with a 16 mm sensing distance and short-body construction. Its DC 3-wire PNP output operates in NC mode through a pre-wired 2 m cable, with a 10 to 30 VDC supply. Ferrous metal is the specified detectable object, using a 48 × 48 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 400 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 included.
Operating data for the E2B-M18KN16-WP-B2 specifies -25 to 70°C for operation and storage without icing or condensation, with 35% to 95% humidity. 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. Brass with nickel plating is used for the case and clamping nut, while PBT is listed for the sensing surface. For another M18 short-body sensor with the same 16 mm sensing distance and NC operation but an NPN output, see E2B-M18KN16-WP-C2 2M.
