Omron E2B-M18KS08-WP-C1 2M Proximity Sensor
Omron E2B-M18KS08-WP-C1 2M is an M18 shielded inductive proximity sensor with an 8 mm sensing distance, short-body construction, and DC NPN NO switching output. It uses a pre-wired 2 m cable and operates from a 10 to 30 VDC supply. The sensor is specified for ferrous-metal detection with a 30 × 30 × 1 mm standard sensing object, 400 Hz response frequency, 10 mA max. current consumption, and 10% max. differential travel. A yellow LED indicates operation, while reverse-polarity, surge, and short-circuit protection are specified. The E2B-M18KS08-WP-C1 belongs to the inductive proximity sensor collection from the Omron industrial sensor.

The Omron E2B-M18KS08-WP-C1 2M Proximity Sensor uses an M18 shielded inductive sensing structure with an 8 mm sensing distance and short-body construction. Its output is NPN with NO operation, connected through a pre-wired 2 m cable and supplied from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metal is specified as the detectable object, with a 30 × 30 × 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. The protection circuit includes output reverse-polarity protection, power-source reverse-polarity protection, surge suppression, and short-circuit protection.
Operating and storage temperature is -25 to 70°C without icing or condensation, with 35% to 95% humidity. Temperature influence is ±10% max. of sensing distance at 23°C from -10 to 55°C and ±15% max. from -25 to 70°C. Insulation resistance is 50 MΩ min. at 500 VDC, dielectric strength is 1,000 VAC for 1 minute, and voltage influence is ±1% max. at 24 VDC ±15%. IP67 is the listed degree of protection. For the same M18 size, 8 mm sensing distance, pre-wired 2 m format, and NO switching with a PNP output, see E2B-M18KS08-WP-B1 2M.
