The Omron E2B-S08KN02-WP-C2 5M is an 8 mm diameter inductive proximity sensor from the E2B series. It detects metal targets at 2 mm with an unshielded face, outputs NPN normally closed, and is wired with a 5 m PVC cable. The cylindrical stainless steel housing and metric M8 thread make it suited for mounting in tight machine frames or corrosive environments where a rugged, low-profile sensor is needed. Used for position verification on small grippers, pick-and-place end effectors, and compact assembly fixtures where space is limited and a 2 mm detection range fits the target approach.
Mounting and wiring note
M8 threaded stainless steel housing, short body. Unshielded face requires non-metal clearance for 2 mm sensing. Pre-wired with 5 m PVC cable. Strip 8 mm for terminal connection. NPN normally closed output: verify sink input compatibility with the controller.
