M18 Analog Proximity Switch

Features

Offers a wider linear detection range of 0-5mm (Flush) and 1-8mm (Non-flush) for applications requiring greater clearance.
Outputs continuous 0-10V or 0-20mA signals proportional to target distance, enabling precise monitoring rather than simple on/off control.
Constructed from robust Nickel-plated Brass, providing superior protection against impact and corrosion compared to plastic alternatives.
Rated IP67 for water resistance and equipped with full protection against short circuits, reverse polarity, and voltage surges.

Product Introduction

This Analog Inductive Sensor is designed for industrial applications requiring continuous distance measurement over a wider range. Unlike standard proximity switches, it provides a linear analog output (0-10V or 0-20mA) based on the distance of the metal target, making it essential for tension control, diameter checking, and precise positioning tasks.

With an extended measuring range of 0-5mm (Flush) and 1-8mm (Non-flush), this model offers greater flexibility for machine design. The sensor is housed in a durable Nickel-plated Brass shell with an IP67 rating, ensuring consistent performance in harsh environments with moisture and dust (-25°C to +70°C). It also features complete circuit protection (short-circuit, reverse polarity, and surge), delivering a reliable and long-lasting solution for process automation.
