Description

Proximity Inductive Sensor

Inductive proximity sensor works on the principle of changing the electromagnetic field by moving a metal element.

The alternating magnetic field that is generated by the sensor induces an eddy current in the conductor, and if it is ferromagnetic it magnetizes it.

Technical data

• Type: inductive
• Output configuration: NPN / NO

• NPN – initiated sensor puts out a low state of 0 V at the output
• NO (Normal Open) – the sensor puts its active state on the output when it is excited (sensor close to metal)

• Range: 0-4.0mm
• Supply voltage: 6-36V DC
• Operating current max: 300mA
• Sensor housing: M12
• Number of pins: 3
• Cable length: 1,0m
• Dimensions: 63 x 12mm

Included

• Proximity Inductive Sensor with wire
