Product Overview
Proximity Sensors, Proximity switches are a type of position switch designed for operation without direct mechanical contact with moving parts. When an object approaches the sensing surface and reaches the operation distance, the switch can work without any mechanical contact or pressure applied, thus driving the DC electrical appliance or providing control commands to the computer (plc). Proximity switches are switch-type sensors (i.e. contactless switches) that incorporate the features of travel switches and microswitches, and provide the sensing capability. They boast reliable operation, stable performance, fast frequency response, long service life, strong anti-interference capability, waterproofness, anti-vibration, corrosion resistance, etc.

Usage Method

The shielded type has the magnetic flux concentrated in the front of the sensor, with the range of the inductive magnetic field toward the front of the proximity switch.

The unshielded coil flux can increase the detection distance, but it is easy to be affected by surrounding metals because there is no object protection
Attention is required during installation

To prevent signal interference, the distance from the sensor surface to the metal detection object is ≥3 Sn (Sn is the sensor’s sensing distance), and the distance between two adjacent proximity sensors is ≥D (D is the sensor’s diameter).

No protection is provided around the induction coil, so the distance to be guaranteed between the sensing surface and the mounting surface shall be Y (M5~M8: Y=6 mm, M12: Y=9 mm).
The distance between the sensing surface and the metal detection object shall be ≥3 Sn, and the distance between two adjacent proximity sensors shall be ≥2D (D is the sensor’s diameter).

For face-to-face mounted sensors, the minimum distance between two sensing surfaces shall be ≥ 6 Sn.

Iron and steel X=0.2D
Other metal X=0.1D
