Product Details
Ceyone Inductive Proximity Switch M18 - NPN NO (5mm Flush Detection)
The Ceyone Inductive Proximity Switch is an industrial-grade sensor offering accurate and wear-free detection of metallic objects. This specific model features an NPN (Negative Switching) Normally Open (NO) configuration within a rugged, cylindrical M18 housing. This makes it a standard component for modern PLC-based automation and machine control systems.
As a flush-mounting (shielded) sensor, it is designed to be embedded directly into a metal machine panel without interference, providing a reliable 5 mm sensing distance. The NPN NO output means that the sensor's output wire connects the load to ground (0V) when a metal object enters the sensing field, providing a digital LOW signal that is compatible with numerous sinking input PLC cards and microcontrollers. The wide operating voltage and robust IP67 rating ensure reliable performance in harsh industrial environments, including areas with coolant spray or heavy dust.
🔧 Key Features
