Omron E2B-M18KS08-M1-B2 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2B-M18KS08-M1-B2 is a cylindrical M18 shielded inductive proximity sensor with an 8 mm sensing distance, a 0 to 6.4 mm setting distance, and short-body construction. It uses a DC 3-wire PNP output with NC operation through an M12 connector and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified detectable object, using a 24 × 24 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 500 Hz, control output is rated 200 mA max. at 30 VDC max., and voltage drop is 2 V max. A yellow operation LED and electrical protection circuits are specified. The E2B-M18KS08-M1-B2 is included under PNP proximity sensors from Omron industrial sensing products.

The Omron E2B-M18KS08-M1-B2 Proximity Sensor uses a cylindrical M18 shielded inductive sensing body with an 8 mm sensing distance, a 0 to 6.4 mm setting distance, and short-body construction. It provides a DC 3-wire PNP output with NC operation through an M12 connector and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified detectable object, with a 24 × 24 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 500 Hz. Control output is rated 200 mA max. at 30 VDC max., and voltage drop is 2 V max. A yellow operation indicator is provided, while output reverse-polarity, power-source reverse-polarity, surge suppression, and short-circuit protection are specified.
Operating and storage conditions for the E2B-M18KS08-M1-B2 are -25 to 70°C. IP67 according to IEC 60529 and EMC according to EN60947-5-2 are listed. Nickel-plated brass, PBT, zinc-plated iron, and the standard PVC cable specification appear in the material details. The short-body M18 configuration combines shielded 8 mm sensing with PNP NC switching and an M12 connector. Ferrous metal remains the specified target, while the 500 Hz response frequency and 200 mA output rating provide the principal electrical values. For another PNP NC E2B sensor with shielded sensing but an M30 body, 10 mm sensing distance, and a pre-wired 2 m cable, see E2B-M30KS10-WP-B2 2M.
