Omron E2A-M18KS08-M1-B1 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2A-M18KS08-M1-B1 uses an M18 cylindrical shielded body for an 8 mm inductive sensing distance and 0 to 6.4 mm setting range. Its short-body construction provides DC 3-wire PNP NO switching through a 4-pin M12 connector and operates from 12 to 24 VDC. Response frequency is 500 Hz, while control output is rated 200 mA max. at 32 VDC max. with a 2 V max. voltage drop. A yellow LED shows operation, and reverse-polarity, surge, and short-circuit protection are specified.

The Omron E2A-M18KS08-M1-B1 Proximity Sensor uses a cylindrical M18 shielded inductive body with an 8 mm sensing distance, 0 to 6.4 mm setting range, and short-body construction. It provides DC 3-wire PNP NO output through a 4-pin M12 connector and operates from 12 to 24 VDC. Response frequency is 500 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 provided together with output reverse-polarity, power-source reverse-polarity, surge, and short-circuit protection. The shielded format and PNP output suit Omron M18 proximity sensor installations requiring flush mounting and connector-based wiring.
Operating conditions for the E2A-M18KS08-M1-B1 extend from -40 to 70°C, while storage covers -40 to 85°C. IP67 according to IEC 60529, IP69K according to DIN 40050, and EMC according to EN60947-5-2 are specified. Brass-nickel-plated or stainless-steel housing options and PBT components are listed among the construction details. The short M18 body helps reduce mounting depth, while the shielded sensing arrangement supports installation close to surrounding metal. Its M12 connector enables detachable cabling during maintenance. For an E2A alternative with an M12 body, NC switching, and a pre-wired 2 m cable, see E2A-M12KN08-WP-B2 2M.
