Omron E2A-M18LS08-M1-B2 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2A-M18LS08-M1-B2 is an M18 shielded inductive proximity sensor 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 a 4-pin M12 connector and operates from 12 to 24 VDC. Response frequency is 500 Hz, and control output is rated 200 mA max. at 32 VDC max. with a 2 V max. voltage drop. A yellow operation LED is specified together with output reverse-polarity, power-source reverse-polarity, surge, and short-circuit protection. The E2A-M18LS08-M1-B2 belongs to long-body inductive proximity sensors from Omron factory automation sensing.

The Omron E2A-M18LS08-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 long-body construction. It provides a DC 3-wire PNP output with NC operation 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 indicator is provided together with output reverse-polarity protection, power-source reverse-polarity protection, surge suppression, and short-circuit protection for industrial control wiring.
Operating conditions for the E2A-M18LS08-M1-B2 cover -40 to 70°C, while storage extends from -40 to 85°C. IP67 according to IEC 60529, IP69K according to DIN 40050, and EMC according to EN60947-5-2 are listed. The shielded M18 sensing format allows installation close to surrounding metal, while the long body provides additional threaded length for mounting adjustment. PNP NC switching is combined with a detachable M12 connector for field wiring and service. Brass-nickel-plated or stainless-steel housing options and PBT are specified among the construction details. For another E2A model with a larger M30 body, 30 mm sensing distance, NPN operation, and a pre-wired 2 m cable, see E2A-M30LN30-WP-C2 2M.
