For stainless steel, the correction factor is roughly 0.7×, so budget 5–6 mm in a stainless target application — if the gap between sensor face and target is tight, the sensor may not detect reliably. Flush mount means the sensor face can be embedded in a metal bracket without derating the sensing range — non-flush sensors lose range when mounted flush. That makes this M18 barrel a direct drop-in for existing M18 flush-mount holes. ## PNP NO output — direct PLC interface without extra components PNP normally-open output sourcing up to 200 mA at 10–30 VDC. That means the sensor switches the positive side — common for most PLC digital inputs — so no pull-up resistor or level shifter is needed between the sensor and the input card. Current consumption is 10 mA, leaving 190 mA of the 200 mA budget for the load — adequate for a single PLC input or a small relay coil. ## IP67 brass housing — washdown-ready for wet or corrosive lines IP67 rating means the sensor body and the M12 connector interface are protected against temporary immersion — suitable for washdown environments in food processing, packaging, or machining coolant splash. Brass nickel-plated housing resists corrosion better than unplated steel — the nickel layer holds up in mildly acidic or alkaline wash solutions, though stainless variants (like the E2BS08KS02MCB120OMS) are preferred for aggressive chemical exposure. ## Switching frequency — 500 Hz is fine for discrete parts, tight for high-speed 500 Hz switching frequency means the sensor can detect an object passing every 2 ms. For a conveyor moving at 1 m/s, that resolves parts spaced about 2 mm apart — adequate for most discrete part detection, but a high-speed pick-and-place or a rotating shaft with small teeth may need a 1.5 kHz sensor. ## Active production — no lifecycle risk for new builds No stock-holding claim — sourced per RFQ from authorized Omron distribution.","metaTitle":"Omron E2BM18KS08M1B1OMI M18 Flush Proximity, 8 mm, PNP NO","metaDescription":"Omron E2B series M18 flush-mount inductive proximity sensor, 8 mm sensing range, PNP NO, 200 mA load, IP67 brass housing, M12 connector.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":null,"categoryPath":["Proximity Sensors"],"specifications":{"title":"E2BM18KS08M1B1OMI","Length":"59 mm","Series":"E2B","description":"Inductive Proximity Sensor PNP, Make Contact (NO) 500Hz 30V 10mA 8mm Connector, M12 IP67 E2B","Load Current":"200 mA","Mounting Type":"Flush Mount","lifecycle_stage":"current","Housing Material":"Brass Nickel Plated","Termination Type":"Connector, M12","Construction Form":"M18","Protection Rating":"IP67","Current Consumption":"10 mA","Switching Frequency":"500 Hz","Sensing Distance Max.":"8 mm","Operating Voltage Max.":"30 V","Operating Voltage Min.":"10 V","Operating Temperature Max.":"70 °C","Operating Temperature Min.":"-25 °C","Inductive Sensor Output Type":"PNP, Make Contact (NO)"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$74.69 – $77.80","stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.aoctrl.com/bf62a03821be86a920f9a3d9fb401fae.pdf","sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"How do I get current pricing and availability for E2BM18KS08M1B1OMI?","answer":"Submit an RFQ against your BOM quantity.
