The E2B-M30LS10-WP-B2 5M belongs to the category of proximity sensors. It is mainly used for sensing metal targets in diverse industrial applications. This article will discuss in detail the application field and working principle of the E2B-M30LS10-WP-B2 5M.

Application Fields

The E2B-M30LS10-WP-B2 5M is a cylindrical shape proximity sensor ideal for detecting metal targets without physical contact, such as iron, chrome, tin, nickel, brass, aluminum, etc. It is commonly referred to as an “edge detector”, due to its ability to detect the edges of metal objects. It is widely used in machines with high automation, factory automation, industrial automation, car manufacturing, woodworking, and other related industries.

Working Principle

The E2B-M30LS10-WP-B2 5M is an inductive proximity sensor which utilizes the principle of electromagnetic induction. When a metal target approaches the sensor, the inductor inside the sensor detects the changing electromagnetic field and sends a signal to the output device.The E2B-M30LS10-WP-B2 5M is a special type of proximity sensor, as it can detect the edges of metal targets, even when multiple targets are present. This is done by using two sensing elements within the sensor, one for detecting the edges of the target, and one for detecting the object’s centre.The detection range of the E2B-M30LS10-WP-B2 5M is 5mm, and its sensing frequency is 8 kHz. It has IP67 level protection, making it dust and water-resistant. Its output type is NPN open collector and it has a response time of 10 ms.

Conclusion

The E2B-M30LS10-WP-B2 5M is an inductive proximity sensor most commonly used for detecting metal targets in a variety of industrial applications. It utilizes the principle of electromagnetic induction to detect the edges of metal targets, even when multiple targets are present. It has a detection range of 5mm, and its response time is 10 ms. Its IP67 protection makes it dust and water-resistant.
