Omron E2B-M18KS08-M1-C2 Proximity Sensor
Omron E2B-M18KS08-M1-C2 uses an M18 cylindrical shielded structure with an 8 mm sensing distance, 0 to 6.4 mm setting range, and compact short body. DC 3-wire NPN NC switching is provided through an M12 connector, with a supply range of 10 to 30 VDC. The specified response frequency is 500 Hz. Control output is rated 200 mA max. at 30 VDC max., and the maximum voltage drop is 2 V. Ferrous metal is the stated sensing object, with a 24 × 24 × 1 mm standard sensing object. See the E2B-M18KS08-M1-C2 in the range of 8 mm proximity sensors offered through Omron Industrial Sensors.

The Omron E2B-M18KS08-M1-C2 Proximity Sensor uses an M18 cylindrical shielded body with an 8 mm sensing distance, 0 to 6.4 mm setting range, and short-body construction. It provides DC 3-wire NPN normally closed switching through an M12 connector and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. Response frequency is specified at 500 Hz. The control output is rated 200 mA max. at 30 VDC max., with a maximum voltage drop of 2 V. Ferrous metal is listed as the sensing object, while the standard sensing object measures 24 × 24 × 1 mm. A yellow operation indicator is included together with output reverse-polarity, power-source reverse-polarity, surge, and short-circuit protection.
Operating and storage temperatures for the E2B-M18KS08-M1-C2 range from -25 to 70°C. The model is rated IP67 according to IEC 60529 and meets the listed EMC specification of EN60947-5-2. Its construction includes brass-nickel-plated material, PBT, and zinc-plated iron. The short-body format helps where installation depth is limited, while the M12 connector provides detachable wiring for M18 NPN proximity sensor applications. For another short-body M18 E2B sensor with 16 mm sensing and NPN NC output, see E2B-M18KN16-M1-C2.
