Omron E2B-M18KN16-WP-C2 2M Proximity Sensor
Omron E2B-M18KN16-WP-C2 2M is an M18 unshielded inductive proximity sensor with a 16 mm sensing distance and short-body construction. It uses a DC 3-wire NPN output with NC operation, a pre-wired 2 m cable, and a 10 to 30 VDC power 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 LED provides operation indication, with reverse-polarity, surge, and short-circuit protection specified. The E2B-M18KN16-WP-C2 2M is included in NPN inductive sensors from Omron industrial automation sensors.

The Omron E2B-M18KN16-WP-C2 2M Proximity Sensor is an M18 unshielded inductive model with a 16 mm sensing distance and short-body construction. It uses a DC 3-wire NPN output with NC operation, a pre-wired 2 m cable, and a 10 to 30 VDC supply. Ferrous metal is listed as the 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 LED indicates operation. Output reverse-polarity protection, power-source reverse-polarity protection, surge suppression, and short-circuit protection are included in the electrical protection.
Operating and storage conditions for the E2B-M18KN16-WP-C2 are -25 to 70°C, 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 listed. Brass with nickel plating is specified for the case and clamping nut, while PBT is used for the sensing surface. For another M18 short-body sensor with the same 16 mm sensing distance and NC operation but a PNP output, see E2B-M18KN16-WP-B2 2M.
