4 mm shielded inductive prox for tight metal-target sensing
The E2B-M12KS04-WP-B1 2M: The Omron E2B-M12KS04-WP- 2M is an inductive proximity sensor in the E2B series, delivering a 4 mm sensing distance on mild steel from a shielded M12 barrel.
Shielded barrel and IP67 seal for wet, tight-bore mounting
The shielded construction means the sensing field is focused out the face — you can flush-mount this into a steel bracket without the sensor detecting the bracket itself, which is the difference between a reliable trigger and a false edge. The nickel-plated brass housing resists corrosion in washdown zones, and the IP67 rating seals the electronics against hose spray and condensation. Operating temperature spans -25°C to 70°C, covering most factory-floor and outdoor cabinet environments. The integrated LED indicator gives a visible state check at the sensor face — useful during commissioning when you are confirming the switching point against the target.
