What it is and why it fits the BOM line
The E2BM30KN20WPB12MOMI is a M30 non-flush inductive sensor with a 20 mm sensing distance, PNP normally open output, and IP67 protection. It switches at 100 Hz on 10–30 VDC, drawing 10 mA no-load. Housing is brass with a 2 m PVC cable. Lifecycle is current active – no LTB or sunset risk. Load current is 200 mA, which drives standard PLC inputs or small relays directly. The 10% repeat accuracy is typical for inductive proximity; don't expect sub-millimeter repeatability, but part presence detection is well within tolerance.
Installation and mounting notes
Non-flush mounting means the sensor needs a metal-free zone around and behind the active face – typically at least three times the sensing distance (60 mm). The 36 mm body diameter (M30 thread) takes a standard 30 mm hole or bracket. IP67-rated housing. Cable is 2 m, wiring is PNP NO.
