Omron E2B-S08KN04-MC-B2 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2B-S08KN04-MC-B2 is a cylindrical M8 unshielded inductive proximity sensor with a 4 mm sensing distance, 0 to 3.2 mm setting distance, and short-body design. It uses a DC 3-wire PNP output with NC operation through a 3-pin M8 connector and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified detection target, with a 12 × 12 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 1,000 Hz, while control output is rated 200 mA max. at 32 VDC max. with a 2 V max. voltage drop. The E2B-S08KN04-MC-B2 belongs to compact PNP proximity sensors from Omron industrial automation sensors.

The Omron E2B-S08KN04-MC-B2 Proximity Sensor uses a cylindrical M8 unshielded inductive sensing body with a 4 mm sensing distance, a 0 to 3.2 mm setting distance, and short-body construction. It provides a DC 3-wire PNP output with NC operation through a 3-pin M8 connector and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified detectable object, with a 12 × 12 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 1,000 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.
Operating and storage conditions for the E2B-S08KN04-MC-B2 cover -25 to 70°C. IP67 according to IEC 60529 and EMC according to EN60947-5-2 are specified. The compact M8 body supports restricted mounting locations, while the unshielded arrangement provides the stated 4 mm sensing range. Stainless steel, PBT, brass-nickel-plated material, zinc-plated iron, and PVC are listed among the construction details. PNP NC switching is combined with a detachable 3-pin M8 connector for field wiring. For another E2B sensor with an M12 body, NPN output, and M12 connector, see E2B-M12KS04-M1-C2.
