Product details

Sensor for discrete part presence – M18 shielded barrel, NPN output, 2m cable

The Omron E2B-M18KS05-WP-C1 2M is a shielded inductive proximity sensor in the E2B series, sized in an M18 short-body brass housing with a 5 mm sensing distance. It provides a normally open NPN output and is pre-wired with a 2-meter PVC cable for connection. The shielded design allows flush mounting in metal, reducing the dead zone for target detection.

What the output type and range mean for fit

The shielded housing allows flush mounting in metal without false triggering. The 5 mm range is the guaranteed detection distance for a standard carbon steel target.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use this NPN sensor to replace a PNP E2B-M18KS05-WP-B1 5M in an existing panel?

No. Although the mechanical dimensions and sensing distance are identical, the output polarity (NPN vs PNP) is different. Replacing a PNP sensor with this NPN unit without rewiring will result in no signal. You must either change the input wiring to accept NPN or source the correct PNP variant (E2B-M18KS05-WP-B1 2M or 5M).

What is the sensing distance and cable length for this proximity sensor?

It has a 5 mm shielded sensing distance and comes with a 2-meter pre-wired PVC cable.
