Omron E2B-M18KS05-M1-B2 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2B-M18KS05-M1-B2 is an M18 shielded inductive proximity sensor with a 5 mm sensing distance and short-body construction. It provides a DC 3-wire PNP output with NC operation through an M12 connector and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metal is the specified detectable object, with an 18 × 18 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 600 Hz, current consumption is 10 mA max., and differential travel is 10% max. of sensing distance. A yellow operation LED, reverse-polarity protection, surge suppression, short-circuit protection, and IP67 protection are specified. The E2B-M18KS05-M1-B2 is included among shielded proximity sensors from Omron industrial sensing products.

The Omron E2B-M18KS05-M1-B2 Proximity Sensor uses an M18 shielded inductive sensing body with a 5 mm sensing distance and short-body construction. It provides a DC 3-wire PNP output with NC operation through an M12 connector and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Ferrous metal is specified as the detectable object, with an 18 × 18 × 1 mm standard sensing object. Response frequency is 600 Hz, current consumption is 10 mA max., and differential travel is 10% max. of sensing distance. A yellow operation indicator is provided. Output reverse-polarity protection, power-source reverse-polarity protection, surge suppression, and short-circuit protection are included in the electrical specifications.
Operating and storage conditions for the E2B-M18KS05-M1-B2 are -25 to 70°C without icing or condensation, with humidity from 35% to 95%. Voltage influence is ±1% max. of sensing distance at 24 VDC ±15%. IP67 according to IEC 60529 and EMC according to EN60947-5-2 are listed. Nickel-plated brass is specified for the case and clamping nut, PBT for the sensing surface, and PVC for the standard cable construction. The M12 connection accompanies the 10 to 30 VDC supply and 600 Hz response frequency.
