Omron E2B-M12KN05-M1-B2 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2B-M12KN05-M1-B2 is an M12 cylindrical unshielded inductive proximity sensor with a 5 mm sensing distance, 0 to 4 mm setting range, and short-body construction. It uses DC 3-wire PNP NC switching through an M12 connector and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified target, with a 15 × 15 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 800 Hz, while control output is rated 200 mA max. at 32 VDC max. with a 2 V max. voltage drop.

The Omron E2B-M12KN05-M1-B2 Proximity Sensor uses an M12 cylindrical unshielded inductive body with a 5 mm sensing distance, 0 to 4 mm setting range, and short-body construction. Its DC 3-wire PNP output works in normally closed mode through an M12 connector. Ferrous metal is the specified sensing target, with a 15 × 15 × 1 mm standard sensing object. The sensor operates from 10 to 30 VDC and has a response frequency of 800 Hz. Control output is rated 200 mA max. at 32 VDC max. with a 2 V maximum voltage drop. A yellow operation LED is specified together with output reverse polarity, supply reverse polarity, surge suppression, and short-circuit protection.
The E2B-M12KN05-M1-B2 supports operation and storage from -25 to 70°C. IP67 according to IEC 60529 and EMC conformity to EN60947-5-2 are listed. Construction materials include brass-nickel-plated housing, PBT, PVC, and zinc-plated iron components. The unshielded M12 sensing structure provides the stated 5 mm range, while the short body keeps mounting length compact. For an E2B model with an M8 body, 4 mm sensing distance, NPN output, and pre-wired 2 m cable, see E2B-S08KN04-WP-C1 2M.
