What this sensor is and where it fits
The Omron E2B-M18KS08-WP-C1 2M is an M18 cylindrical shielded inductive proximity sensor from the E2B series. It detects ferrous metal targets at a rated sensing distance of 8 mm, with an NPN-NO 3-wire output.
NPN-NO output and wiring
The NPN-NO output signals a normally-open sinking transistor: the output transistor pulls low when metal is detected, and floats when no target is present.
Lifecycle and sourcing posture
This sensor is listed as an active product in the Omron E2B series, with no end-of-life notification. For volume purchases or BOM-line commitments, the part is sourced and quoted to order through independent distribution.
