RS PRO Inductive Proximity Sensor, M12 x 1, Barrel, PNP Output, 8 mm Detection, IP68, Cable Terminal


Need to detect the presence of metal objects without any physical contact? Use this RS PRO inductive proximity sensor. This type of sensor is used in situations where an object needs detecting within a defined range, such as sorting manufactured items on a production line.


The sensor's stainless steel body ensures it's tough and corrosion-resistant, so it can withstand use in demanding environments. High thermal resistance makes the component suitable for use in hot operating conditions.


Thanks to its IP68 (Ingress Protection) rating, it's water-resistant and dust-tight. You can use this type of sensor for food processing applications.
