Omron E2A-M30KN20-M1-C3 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2A-M30KN20-M1-C3 is an M30 short-body inductive proximity sensor specified with an unshielded sensing arrangement, 20 mm sensing distance, and 0 to 16 mm setting range. It uses DC 3-wire NPN output with NO+NC switching through an M12 connector. Operating voltage is 12 to 24 VDC, while response frequency is 100 Hz. The control output is rated 200 mA max. at 32 VDC max. with a maximum 2 V voltage drop. A yellow LED shows operating status, and the circuit includes reverse-polarity, surge, and short-circuit protection. Explore the E2A-M30KN20-M1-C3 among M30 inductive sensors from Omron Sensors.

The Omron E2A-M30KN20-M1-C3 Proximity Sensor uses an M30 cylindrical unshielded body with a 20 mm inductive sensing distance and 0 to 16 mm setting range. Its short housing is configured with DC 3-wire NPN output supporting both NO and NC switching through an M12 connector. Supply voltage is 12 to 24 VDC, and response frequency is rated at 100 Hz. The control output is specified at 200 mA max. at 32 VDC max. with a 2 V maximum voltage drop. A yellow operation LED is included. Protection functions cover output reverse polarity, supply reverse polarity, surge suppression, and short circuit. The dual-output configuration provides a different switching option from standard NPN NO or NC models.
The sensor operates between -40 and 70°C and supports storage from -40 to 85°C. The E2A-M30KN20-M1-C3 carries IP67 protection according to IEC 60529 and IP69K according to DIN 40050, with EMC conformity to EN60947-5-2. Housing materials include brass-nickel-plated or stainless-steel options and PBT components. Its short M30 construction retains the stated 20 mm unshielded sensing distance while using detachable M12 wiring. For an E2A sensor using NO+NC switching in a smaller M12 body with an 8 mm sensing distance, see E2A-M12LS08-M1-B3.
