This M5x0.5 inductive sensor detects the presence of metal targets at a rated operating distance of 0.8 mm, providing a PNP normally open switching output for connection to standard digital inputs. Its stainless steel housing, ceramic sensing surface and IP67 rating suit installation in compact spaces on automated machinery and panels where flush mounting is required. Operating from 10-30 VDC and switching at frequencies up to 3000 Hz, it is suited to applications requiring detection of small parts or fast-moving targets.
