Omron E2A-M18LS08-M1-B3 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2A-M18LS08-M1-B3 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 combined NO and NC switching through an 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 specified for switching status. The E2A-M18LS08-M1-B3 is part of shielded M18 inductive sensors from Omron automation sensing solutions.

The Omron E2A-M18LS08-M1-B3 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 both NO and NC switching through an M12 connector and operates from 12 to 24 VDC. Response frequency is 500 Hz. 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 protection, power-source reverse-polarity protection, surge suppression, and short-circuit protection.
Operating conditions for the E2A-M18LS08-M1-B3 cover -40 to 70°C, with storage extending from -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 shielded M18 arrangement supports installation near surrounding metal, while the long body provides additional threaded mounting adjustment. Dual PNP NO and NC switching offers two output states from the same sensor. For another long-body E2A sensor with a larger M30 housing, 30 mm sensing range, and pre-wired NPN NC output, see E2A-M30LN30-WP-C2 2M.
