Omron E2A-M18KS08-WP-B3 2M Proximity Sensor
Omron E2A-M18KS08-WP-B3 2M is an M18 shielded inductive proximity sensor with an 8 mm sensing distance, 0 to 6.4 mm setting distance, and short-body design. It provides a DC 3-wire PNP output with combined NO and NC switching through a pre-wired 2 m cable 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 indicates operation, with reverse-polarity, surge, and short-circuit protection specified. The E2A-M18KS08-WP-B3 2M is part of dual-output M18 proximity sensors from Omron industrial sensing products.

The Omron E2A-M18KS08-WP-B3 2M Proximity Sensor uses a cylindrical M18 shielded inductive sensing body with an 8 mm sensing distance, 0 to 6.4 mm setting distance, and short-body design. It provides a DC 3-wire PNP output with combined NO and NC switching through a pre-wired 2 m cable 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 provides operation indication, while output reverse-polarity protection, power-source reverse-polarity protection, surge suppression, and short-circuit protection are specified.
Operating conditions for the E2A-M18KS08-WP-B3 cover -40 to 70°C, and storage extends from -40 to 85°C. The sensor carries IP67 according to IEC 60529, IP69K according to DIN 40050, and EMC according to EN60947-5-2. Shielded construction supports mounting near surrounding metal, while the short body limits required installation depth. The dual output provides both NO and NC switching from one sensor. Brass-nickel-plated or stainless-steel housing options, PBT components, and PVC cabling are listed for this E2A construction. For a compact E2A model using NPN NO output and a 4 mm sensing distance, see E2A-S08KN04-WP-C1 2M.
