Omron E2A-S08KN04-M5-C1 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2A-S08KN04-M5-C1 is an M8 cylindrical unshielded inductive proximity sensor with a 4 mm sensing distance and 0 to 3.2 mm setting range. Its short body uses DC 3-wire NPN NO switching through a 3-pin M8 connector and operates from 12 to 24 VDC. Response frequency reaches 1,000 Hz, while the 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 supply reverse-polarity, surge, and short-circuit protection. See the E2A-S08KN04-M5-C1 under M8 proximity sensors from Omron Sensing Products.

The Omron E2A-S08KN04-M5-C1 Proximity Sensor uses an M8 cylindrical unshielded inductive body with a 4 mm sensing distance, 0 to 3.2 mm setting range, and short-body construction. Its DC 3-wire NPN output operates in normally open mode through a 3-pin M8 connector. Supply voltage is 12 to 24 VDC, while response frequency reaches 1,000 Hz. The control output is rated 200 mA max. at 32 VDC max. with a 2 V maximum voltage drop. A yellow operation LED provides switching indication. Power-source reverse-polarity protection, surge suppression, and short-circuit protection are specified. These characteristics suit compact M8 NPN proximity sensor applications requiring fast response and detachable M8 connection.
The E2A-S08KN04-M5-C1 operates from -40 to 70°C and can be stored from -40 to 85°C. Its environmental specifications include IP67 according to IEC 60529 and IP69K according to DIN 40050, with EMC conformity to EN60947-5-2. Stainless-steel or brass-nickel-plated construction, PBT, PVC, and brass-nickel-plated parts are listed. The unshielded M8 sensing arrangement supports the stated 4 mm distance while retaining a compact short body. For an M18 E2A sensor with 8 mm sensing distance, NPN NC switching, and an M12 connector, see E2A-M18LS08-M1-C2.
