Omron E2A-M12LN08-M1-B2 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2A-M12LN08-M1-B2 is a cylindrical M12 unshielded inductive proximity sensor with an 8 mm sensing distance, 0 to 6.4 mm setting distance, and long-body construction. It uses a DC 3-wire PNP output with NC operation through an M12 connector and operates from 12 to 24 VDC. Response frequency is 800 Hz, and control output is rated 200 mA max. at 32 VDC max. with a 2 V max. voltage drop. Protection functions include output reverse-polarity protection, power-source reverse-polarity protection, surge suppression, and short-circuit protection. The E2A-M12LN08-M1-B2 belongs to the long-body proximity sensor range from Omron automation products for industrial detection applications.

The Omron E2A-M12LN08-M1-B2 Proximity Sensor uses a cylindrical M12 unshielded inductive sensing body with an 8 mm sensing distance, 0 to 6.4 mm setting distance, and long-body construction. It provides a DC 3-wire PNP output with NC operation through an M12 connector and operates from 12 to 24 VDC. Response frequency is 800 Hz, while control output is rated 200 mA max. at 32 VDC max. with a 2 V max. voltage drop. A yellow operation LED is specified. Output reverse-polarity protection, power-source reverse-polarity protection, surge suppression, and short-circuit protection are included for the electrical circuit.
Operating conditions for the E2A-M12LN08-M1-B2 extend from -40 to 70°C, while storage is specified from -40 to 85°C. Environmental protection includes IP67 according to IEC 60529, IP69K according to DIN 40050, and EMC according to EN60947-5-2. The long M12 body provides additional threaded mounting length for positioning through brackets and machine structures, while the unshielded sensing format provides the stated 8 mm range. Its M12 connector enables detachable field wiring during maintenance. Brass-nickel-plated or stainless-steel housing options and PBT are listed among the construction details. For another long-body M12 E2A sensor with the same 8 mm sensing distance but NO switching, see E2A-M12LN08-M1-B1.
