M12 Inductive Proximity Sensor - NPN NO/NC (Non-Flush)

✨Features

✅ Extended Sensing Range: The Non-Flush (Non-Shielded) design utilizes an exposed coil to achieve longer detection distances (4mm or 8mm) compared to flush-mounted equivalents, making it ideal for detecting targets that cannot pass close to the sensor face.
✅ High Load Capacity: Unlike smaller sensors, this M12 unit supports a load current of up to 200 mA, allowing it to directly drive larger relays or indicators without intermediate switching.
✅ Durable Metal Housing: Constructed from a robust Nickel-Copper Alloy, providing excellent mechanical strength and corrosion resistance superior to standard plastic sensors.
✅ Fast Response: Features a 1000 Hz switching frequency, ensuring accurate counting and detection of fast-moving objects on conveyor systems.

Product Introduction

The M12 Inductive Proximity Sensor (NPN Non-Flush) is a robust industrial sensor designed for applications requiring reliable detection at a slightly extended distance. With its Non-Flush head design, it offers sensing ranges of 4mm or 8mm, providing a larger margin of error for target positioning.

Housed in a rugged Nickel-Copper Alloy body with a durable PBT sensing face, this sensor is built to withstand harsh factory environments with an IP67 rating. It operates on 10-30 VDC and delivers a high-capacity 200 mA NPN output. Whether used for position verification, limit switching, or pulse counting, the M12 Non-Flush series ensures consistent performance in automation, packaging, and material handling systems.
