Product Overview
The Omron E2B-S08KN04-MC-B1 2M is an M8 unshielded inductive proximity sensor from the E2B family, manufactured by Omron Corporation. Hengyixin Automation ships this sensor from our Xiamen warehouse with a 30-day DOA return window and a datasheet PDF included in the box.
The sensor detects ferrous metal at 4 mm. The short stainless-steel body is 44 mm long with a 21 mm thread. The M8 3-pin connector mounts directly; Omron lists no cable for this model, so there is no pigtail to run. Output is PNP normally open, 3-wire, at 10 to 30 VDC with a 200 mA load limit.
A yellow LED on the back of the body shows the output state. The unit is IP67 sealed and runs from -25 to +70 degC, with reverse-polarity and surge protection on the output. Response frequency is 1 kHz. For a shielded M8 2 mm version on the same connector, pick the E2B-S08KS02-MC-B1. For a shielded M12 4 mm NPN with a prewired cable, pick the E2B-M12KS04-WZ-B1 2M.
Key Features
- E2B M8 unshielded inductive proximity sensor, 4 mm sensing distance
- PNP normally open 3-wire output, 10-30 VDC supply, 200 mA max load
- 44 mm stainless-steel short body, 21 mm thread, 2 m pigtail to M8 connector
- IP67 sealed, -25 to +70 degC, yellow operation LED, 1 kHz response
- SKU: E2B-S08KN04-MC-B1 2M
- Series: Omron E2B-series M8 cylindrical inductive proximity sensor
- Voltage: 10 TO 30 VDC
Best-Fit Applications
- End-of-stroke check on a small pneumatic cylinder where the unshielded 4 mm range picks the magnet target through the aluminium head
- Part-present feedback on a vibratory bowl where the M8 connector lets the operator swap the sensor without re-wiring
- Spare replacement on a packaging line where the original M8 sensor failed and the new one drops onto the same bracket and cable
Buying Checklist
- Pick the E2B-S08KN04-MC-B1 2M for an M8 unshielded 4 mm PNP NO inductive sensor with a 2 m pigtail to an M8 connector.
- Pick the E2B-S08KS02-MC-B1 instead when the application needs a shielded 2 mm sensor on the same M8 body.
- Pick the E2B-M12KS04-WZ-B1 2M instead when the panel needs an M12 4 mm shielded NPN sensor with a prewired cable.

FAQ for E2B-S08KN04-MC-B1 2M
What metal can the E2B-S08KN04-MC-B1 2M detect?
Ferrous metal at the full 4 mm rated distance. The sensing distance drops on non-ferrous metals (stainless steel, aluminium, brass). Use an 8 x 8 x 1 mm mild-steel target for the published 4 mm spec.
Can this sensor mount in a steel bracket?
Yes, with clearance. The unshielded body needs about one body diameter of free space around the sensing face. For flush mounting in steel, switch to a shielded variant such as the E2B-S08KS02-MC-B1.
What does the B1 in the SKU mean?
B1 = normally open output on the standard wiring pinout. The B2 suffix is normally closed on the same body. The MC suffix marks the M8 3-pin connector; the WP suffix marks a 2 m prewired cable without a connector.
