The E2AS12KS04M1B1OMS: M12 shielded inductive sensor, PNP normally open output, rated for 4 mm sensing distance at 1 kHz switching frequency. Stainless steel barrel with M12 connector termination, IP67 sealed. Load current up to 200 mA over 10–32 VDC supply.
Compared to E2AM12KS04M1B14OMS
This E2AS12 unit uses a stainless steel housing and through-hole mounting, while the E2AM12 variant uses brass and flush mounting. Both share 4 mm range, M12 connector, and PNP NO output.
Operates across -40 to 70 °C. Switching at 1 kHz is adequate for most proximity detection on conveyors or machine tools. The M12 connector simplifies field replacement — no wire stripping required. The stainless barrel handles washdown environments better than brass.
